I have been making felt crowns as I mentioned in the first felt crown post. For the children to play prince and princess dress-up
in class at our pre-school.
Or really,
knowing children and their endless imaginations,
they could become anything wearing these crowns,
couldn't they?
Both of these crowns look fairly traditional I think.
I made these first, with the idea of simplicity, pastel colours
and felt shapes to imitate gemstones.
Then I allowed myself to be inspired by what I see around me every day.
The scenes that take my breath away here on the Sunshine Coast.
The fairy-tale forest.
Mother Nature's sanctuary.
Our surrounds,
where imagination runs free and real magic can happen.

I hope you like them.
Happily, the children do.
