Tutorial: Thor Inspired Wing Headband



A few days ago, I decided to rent the first Thor movie since Thor: The Dark World comes out this weekend! I have totally fallen in love with Chris Hemsworth. But also Natalie Portman! She's so cute in the movie. I am excited to watch the second movie tomorrow so tonight I was googling Thor crafts and came across this awesome headband tutorial by Doodle Craft. I decided right away I had to make it!

I made my wings smaller than Doodle Craft's tutorial so they could be worn more often. But it would be fun to remake this in different wing shapes and sizes.

I printed out a wing shape that I liked and traced it onto some sheet foam.

Normally I would gesso the sheet foam so it would become thicker and more sturdy, but tonight I wanted this done quick so I just decided to spray paint the wings silver.

Then I outlined the wings with gold paint and used hair spray to add some glitter. 

Because I am a glitzy Thor girl! 

Attach your wings with hot glue to a skinny headband and you're done!

Pixie insisted on a hug during my photo shoot.

Aww kitty!


This was a super quick and cheap DIY project!
