Spiked Halo Headpiece Tutorial 

me taking notes so I can recreate the met gala looks 👀📝

spraying the crown with aglossy brown or black base coat will make the gold look even shinier, since it will even out the surface.

this project makes my inner art history nerd happy

would be nice if you would show the end result (the photo of you wearing it) at the end again. because while watching we are so focused on you watching how you do it that we almost forget how wonderful and cool were the beginning at the beginning

I could, literally, listen to you describe making a bowl of cereal. Your voice is super relaxing, and this is a wonderful project for beginner crafters. Thanks, so much!

This is so cool and absolutely genius. It's amazing that a piece can look so original and avant-garde but also be so traditional and classical. You're incredible.

I have used this as well as the hand soldered filigree stampings crown tutorial to learn how to make my own headpieces, three of which are being used in a short film next weekend. I'm a HUGE history buff, and I love Renaissance era fashion, painting, jewelry and calligraphy, as well as rococo/regency fashion, Victorian fashion (although I'm more of an 1870s/1880s girl than an 1850s/early 1860s girl, lol) Tudor and Elizabethan fashion, and 1920s-1970s, especially the more midcencury mod stuff, and the later '60s and early '70s "Dark Shadows" "Adams Family" pilgrim collar type thing. I used to try and recreate dresses from paintings of various members of the court of Versailles in the 1700s, but I've been really busy with music the last few years until I got this job as head costumer for a short film that includes Renaissance scenes and contemporary ones, so I started researching some diy accessory methods, which led me to this channel and your blog. You have inspired me to start costuming for myself again for the first time in 5 years! I have also really enjoyed your dressmaking videos and blog posts, and I've actually learned a lot from you, and I'm 29, so your work and ingenuity is really impressive! Thanks Angela! Maybe one day soon you'll see some tutorials on my channel! Please continue the amazingly helpful and fun videos and posts!

I love these so much! I'm definitely going to make some. I've been trying to convince my cousin to take portraits of me that I will have turned into oil paintings (because who doesn't want a fancy oil painting of the self?) and this is sooooo perfect for the photos!

Thankyou very much for making this tutorial!! My daughter is searching on different headpiece for their play and finally saw what she like most when she encountered your video!

omg the classical music you hear in the background I can play this on my violin.... OMG it is sooo cool that you used this

Your voice is so pretty and calming. I love listening to you. 💕

What a beautiful project, thank you for documenting it and sharing.

I have been wanting to make one of these for such a long time, skewers are such a good idea!!

How fragile is that? I would fear those sticks falling or breaking off of the headband

I love your sense of creativity, it’s so impressive 👍👍

These are absolutely gorgeous! I love your channel

So pretty! I woulda never thought to use skewers, very smart idea!

That was so simple yet beautiful. Thanks for breaking it down!

i love your job !! es increible! me encantaria uno de tu vestidos son preciosos! you are a artist!!!!

Your hair is so cute!! I want to get mine cut like that :') Anyway, your project was amazing too! Although... those last two skewers closest to the edge of the headband made me nervous 0-0 Now I need to start making crowns haha!

Hi, what a beauty of idea

Hi Im Lyka Oduya Of the Philippines I love you crown. I Used to Be Rosa Mystica in our city And your video help me to make a crown. Thank you for this . God Bless You. And Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much .... like you really saved my whole outfit

So pretty!

Wow it’s pretty 🥰

i would love to see your take on the crown hedy lamarr had to wear in ziegfeld girl

I must not use E6000 properly cause it always takes forever to dry for me. These headbands are soooooo gorgeous and really inspiring to look at.

AMAZIIIINGGGGGG!!!!

THANK YOU FOR THE TIP! IT REALLY HELPED!

You are very artistic good work

VERY CREATIV ; WAS THE REASON I SUBSCRIBE !!!

Beautiful!

I love it. Please sell some I really want one.

Wow! Amazing!

I think it would pretty cool if you made a crown like that for like an evil queen character or something

Gorgeous. 😍

So beautiful♡♡

You are pretty. Nice project! 😍

This is amazing but I was wondering how do the dried roses hold up? I would assume they're very fragile but ??? Also did you dry them yourself if so how did you do that without crushing them??? Either was this tutorial is absolutely brilliant

you should do a tutorial on the hat you made! that would be awsome!

Just brilliant....

Beautiful

I would love to see your rendition of a steampunk victorian dress! Love your work. Can't wait to see what's next.

I finally made this and then made shoulder pieces to go with it for a look I did

Instead of a wet q-tip I use a pencil with a bit of sticky tack on the end. I prefer it because I can mod it into a point if using really tiny stones or I can pick up. 2 or sometimes 3 stones when doing large surfaces. I'm actually working on my third pair of rhinestone covered shoes. And E6000 is the best glue for that to

Can I sprinkle the glitter/sequins to save time or do I have to do it per skew?

Im making this for halloween! Ty for your video

AMAZING!

Oh my Gooooooooooooooooooshhhhhhhhhh, you're such a god.

Will you ever do a hat tutorial? Would love to see one

I love multi purpose accessories! Did you have any trouble with the skewers falling out of place or breaking?

I love this video

Nice video. This spiky crown with roses makes you look like Our Lady of La Salette ;-D.

wonderful a little magic for all tfs

Awecome work

How is the *moop* return? Did any of the rhinestones or beads fall off?

Thank you!

When I sprayed the gold on it made all the sticks fall off somehow! 😩 must be something in the paint?

Her hands though are soooo beautiful

This would be for Dias Delos Muertos 😲🥰

Met Gala designers be like

aren't the dried flowers falling apart or crumbling? i always have that problem with mine...

CUTE 😭😭💞

Awesome

Love it! But how do you keep it secure on your head? Thanks x

Precious!
