Instructions

Step 1: Print the Father’s Day crown craft template

Print the Father's Day crown template onto white card or paper.

You may want to have a couple spare in case of mistakes.

Step 2: Colour in the template

Colour in the crown craft template as desired using pens, pencils, paints, Glitter Glu or similar. We also recommend personalising the crown with your father’s name or with his favourite colours to make sure it’s to his taste.

Tacky's tip

Remember to stay within the lines and to shade carefully so there aren't any white gaps. Use Extra Strong Glu Dots to add craft embellishments such as sequins, gems or similar and use Foam Pads to create 3D effects.

Important

Step 3 includes using scissors. Please ensure children are supervised when using scissors and if necessary, an adult should complete the cutting on behalf of a child.

Step 3: Cut out the crown

Next, carefully cut out the crown stencil from the template.

Step 4: Create the crown band

Apply Blu Glu stick to both of the 'glue here' tabs on the strips and attach to form a circle. This is the crown band to go around the head.

Tacky's tip

If you can, measure your dad's head (or someone with a similar sized head) using a flexible tape measure. If necessary, cut your strips so that they are slightly larger than your measurement. For example, if you measured 56cm, cut to 58cm for a perfect, comfortable fit!
