First Birthday Crown

Share
Ok, everyone. I need your opinions!
I’ve asked my husband and mother and well of course they are going to tell me the love it! But I need some honesty here. I thought of this idea to make my daughter a birthday crown, but I wanted to do it out of fabric. I looked everywhere online for a tutorial and all I could find was felt crowns. That was just not what I wanted. So, I made my own : )
I didn’t want a traditional crown that fit around their head so I kinda made a hat-crown. I’m currently trying to think of a way to cleverly combine those two words and all I’m coming up with is things like Crowt — not really an appealing name if you ask me. So also taking suggestions on that.
I’m wanting to sell the pattern/tutorial in my etsy store so tell me what you think. I’ll still have to figure out different sizes and such but don’t want to go through all that trouble if this is a craft FAIL.
My daughter wasn’t exactly cooperative while I was trying to snap these for the blog. But she’s still adorable.
She was looking at me like I was crazy!

This is what she really wanted….my keys!

So, leave a comment and tell me what you think… yes or no?

    OMG!! If I can get the pattern for free, I will be more than willing to help with size for older children-you know they still like being crowned birthday prince and princesses for the day.
