DIY Cardboard Horns
From the comments section:
What sizes did you use?
I used a strap from 25cm long for the biggest circle and made them shorter for the smaller circles. They’re 1,5 cm in width, but you can always change it for different outcomes! It’s fun to experiment with it! How wider the strap is, how bigger the curve is going to be. And the cardboard is from an ice cream box, so I don’t really know how thick it is. I can only tell you that if the cardboard is too thick, you’ll see the edges through the surface, if you know what I mean And it will be difficult to shape
… first I roll the biggest circle from a 25cm long strap. Then I take the next strap and make it a bit shorter, like 20 cm. I roll that one, glue the end and put it inside the biggest circle to let it fit in. And so on and on till you reach the middle
How to put them on hair or wigs?
I used a thin metal hairband (black) to put them on. You can make two little cuts at the base of the horns and put the hairband through them. (Not sure if I used the right words)
Did you paint the horns or plaster them?
Um, I painted the horns with a rather thick paint and used a rough brush. That way you can see the lines in the way you paint. I also painted in different layers and used three different shades of the same color to make them more epic (as you can see, the horns are beige and more reddish around the edges)
Did you use glue?
And I just wanted to say that I used hot glue, but from a glue gun. That way I could cover up the edges from the cardboard And indeed, make a more awesome structure!
