Frozen is one of the most popular Disney movies since The Lion King, and for good reason. A story of two sisters and the love that unites them, the movie's a combination of hilarity and emotion with an all-star cast and soundtrack. 

Elsa, the eldest sister with magical powers, is especially revolutionary on the Disney scene. (SPOILER ALERT) A queen with magical powers that have been in hiding for most of her life, she learns to abandon a life of fear and to just love and accept herself - magical ice powers, storm, and all. Not only is she one of the most relatable Disney characters ever created, but her power ballad "Let It Go" has topped the charts for weeks, even beating out Beyonce (which is the true mark of ridiculous amounts of success).

Now, you too can be like Elsa by making your own Elsa crown!! Follow the steps below and enjoy!!


How to Make Elsa's Crown

Materials

  • 2 Plain Pieces of Paper
  • Stapler
  • Scissors
  • Tape (optional)
  • Pencil (optional)
  • Any decorations your heart desires!

1. First, we need to make a plain paper tiara (check out the full instructions for the original here). Fold the paper in half hamburger-style and then in half again, creasing on the fold. Then, unfold the paper.






2. Next, fold a corner of the paper in so the edge lines up with the center crease. Do this on every corner.









3. Fold the paper in half along the center crease.





4. Fold the top down so the tip of the triangle touches the bottom edge of the crown.








5. Fold the flat part of bottom edge over so that the tip of the folded down triangle is now on the other side of the crown.





6. It should look like this! Yay - so far so good :)!!






7. Next, fold the crown half along the center crease.






8. Elsa's crown is kind of curvy, so I would draw these lines out on the paper before you make the cut (or if you're super artsy, then just ignore and get straight to it!).




9. Cut along the lines and unfold the crown to see your beautiful craftsmanship.



10. Next, cut (or rip off) a small section of paper. (You can cut two strips or one, depending on how wide you want the crown to be.)






11. Staple the ends of the crown to the folded-over rectangle.







12. Decorate as you please and enjoy your royalty and awesomeness!!

But I'm sure it's too beautiful to get rid of, although it might make some random passerby a very happy camper...
