Rose Tiara

 What you'll need for this project is:

craft lace
braided ribbon
a fake rose
jewels (tones of pinks and purples)
hot glue gun with glue sticks
pins
scissors
styrofoam head

Most of these items you can get at a craft store like Micheals, but I did find the head at Value Village when their Halloween stock comes out.
 First thing I did was wrap the craft lace around the styrofoam head, pinning it in place. Then I cut off the excess lace.

While the lace was pinned in place, I hot glued the braided ribbon along the top of the lace, removing the pins as I went.
Next, I cut off three of the leaves from the fake rose. I glued those in a "T" formation at the front of the tiara. Then I cut off the head of the rose and glued it on top of the leaves. I cut off the last two leaves and glued those on top of the rose head, hiding the base of rose head.

Lastly, I adorned the lace and the rose with jewels that where glued into place.
