Step One:\u00a0<\/strong>Print and cut out templates.<\/p>\n

Step Two:\u00a0<\/strong>Cut and tape\u00a0sword template\u00a0together.<\/p>\n

Step Three:\u00a0<\/strong>Tape sword template to a piece of corrugated cardboard with the “lines” of the cardboard running the length of the sword. Using\u00a0craft knife on cutting mat, cut around template to create cardboard sword.<\/p>\n

\"Nella<\/p>\n

Step Four:\u00a0<\/strong>Cover sword with pastel green duct tape running tape from tip of sword to handle, overlapping tape to cover cardboard completely. Flip sword over and cover the backside completely as well. Use your finger to press tape together around sword. Cut the excess duct tap from around sword, leaving a 1\/8″ border.<\/p>\n

Step Five:\u00a0<\/strong>Cut two pieces of pastel purple duct tape and adhere to front and back of sword handle. Trim excess.<\/p>\n

Step Six:\u00a0<\/strong>Cut out sword handle template and glue to bottom of sword handle. Set\u00a0aside to dry.<\/p>\n

\"Nella<\/p>\n

Step Seven:\u00a0<\/strong>Glue\u00a0a piece of pink glitter paper (about the size of the tiara template) to heavy weight paper. Allow\u00a0to dry. Once dry, trim around tiara design. Tape one template to mounted pink glitter paper and cut around tiara shape with scissors. Remove template.<\/p>\n

Step Eight:\u00a0<\/strong>Repeat with a\u00a0piece of purple glitter paper. With scissors, cut around purple shape on template. Remove template. Then, repeat with green glitter paper. With scissors, cutting only around green heart shape on template.<\/p>\n

Step Nine:\u00a0<\/strong>Using a fresh copy of the tiara template as a guide, bend and shape white pipe-cleaners into the white details on template. Use wire snips to trim pipe-cleaner.<\/p>\n

Step Ten: <\/strong>Layer and glue the tiara pieces together. Allow to\u00a0dry, placing under a heavy book (with wax paper) if necessary.<\/p>\n

\"Nella<\/p>\n

Step Eleven:\u00a0<\/strong>Place three soft Velcro dots along back bottom edge of tiara and one soft dot on back top center. Stick rough dots on top off adhered dots with sticker side\u00a0facing out. Place tiara shape on\u00a0sword handle and press down. Gently remove tiara, making sure the rough dots stay on sword handle. Press rough dots firmly down on sword.<\/p>\n

Step Twelve: <\/strong>Stick\u00a0three new\u00a0rough dots on top of\u00a0soft dots on tiara. Carefully line up dots and press into place on headband. Gently remove tiara, leaving rough dots on headband. Press rough dots firmly down onto headband.<\/p>\n
