Teach Me: How to Make Lace Crowns

Step four: wrap the lace around the container. Secure with a pin or clip.

Step five: once it’s dried, peel the lace off the container. Glue the ends together.

Now you can embellish it!

    This is way to cute! I love that it could be for boys and girls. And it looks like something even I might be able to make!

    Morena I love these!! I am currently designing and making a Princess Tiana dress and this would be the PERFECT crown! I won’t be posting my Tiana dress until early next month but would you mind if I made one of these and posted a link back to your tutorial for my readers on Sweet Benanna & Sam? [email protected]

    Very pretty, and seems easy! My question would be, where could I find these kind of laces? Does it have to be cut, to look like a crown? Thank you

      I tried Hobby Lobby and even asked a lady in the sewing dept. She said they didn’t have anything like that.
      Any other suggestions? I just love these!!

        What are you not able to find? The lace is with the ribbon at Michael’s. You might find the fabric stiffener with the adhesives, but I order it from ConsumerCrafts.com. I hope that helps!

    Thanks for the tips. I have wanted to make one of these lace crowns for months. I guess I need to take a trip to the fabric store soon.

      It takes less than a day to dry. I let them dry overnight.

    When you say paint the lace with craft paint, do you mean fabric paint ( some come in a spray) or regular acrylic crafting paint that can be applied with a brush? Thx for these tips…going to be the Queen Bee of making some crowns! 😉

      Heather, I used acrylic crafter’s paint and a brush. I hope that helps!

    I love your crowns, they are so cute and easy to make! Where do you get your fabric stiffener? They only had a spray one at my craft store. When I sprayed it to saturation and let it dry it was quite stiff but after I painted the crown it became a little more floppy. Do you think it would work if I sprayed it again even though it’s already painted or will it be ruined? Thanks!

    Thanks, Danielle! I got the fabric stiffener from consumercrafts.com

    If you respray your painted crown, put it back on your can/jar or whatever you used to shape it first. It will collapse when it gets wet again, so you’ll have to reshape it. I hope that helps!

    Which kind of lace is best? There’s the synthetic material type of lace or the cotton lace.

    I did this and after the fabric stiffener the crown was wonderful but then I painted it and it got all floppy again.
    Should I do the fabric stiffener again?

      Sometimes if you use too much paint it will become floppy, so wrap it around the can again while it dries so it can set correctly. Another idea is to tint the fabric stiffener with paint so you color and stiffen at the same time. For the ones you made, I’d just do the stiffener again. I hope that helps!

    I wonder if you could do this with modge podge or clear glue, it would be waterproof then, I think I’ll try and let you know

      I have made one with Mod Podge and posted it here. It works but is not as stiff…it’s more pliable.

    Will starch work the same as the fabric stiffener?

      I haven’t tried that but I’m pretty sure that it would work the same way if you used liquid starch.
