Day of Dead Head/ Sugar Skull Piece and Mask


Yes, gave it a smile. About 7 minutes for the mask, 15 for headpiece. Well, not including procurement of supplies. Hot glue gun allows for all sorts of wanky positioning on things that one would think would not stay in place...yet for hot glue.  Some day may  hot glue and one of my digits  not connect on a project.

Took a 1" wide headband, put a 3" wide stripe of felt on it (slice  felt like a button hole in about 6 places so it could weave in and out of the headband...for stability. Hot glued the felt to band. Cut the flowers from their long stems...spread the hot glue on liberally, pressed the flowers on.  Finish off with tulle veil and long strand of kind of wild tiny pearls. Voila.
