A woman who has a beautiful dress in her wardrobe must have thought about how to decorate it, at least once. A beautiful collar can be a good solution to this issue. There are dozens of different ways to make a collar: this is a crocheted collar, from beads, beads, lace. If there are dozens of ways, then the collars themselves are thousands. Each of them is distinguished by the complexity of manufacturing, beauty and materials used. Today we will tell you how to make a collar for a real snow queen quickly and in detail with your own hands.

The collar that you see in the figure above will look good in the winter. He is perfect for the dress. And so, we proceed to its manufacture.

We make a step by step collar of the Snow Queen with our own hands in a master class

We begin the production by marking the line of the dress's gate with chalk. On the resulting line, we begin to build the frame of the future collar from a fairly rigid wire.

Eighteen twigs thirty centimeters long were taken in the photo. But it is not necessary to stick to these numbers. You must choose the number and length of rods at your discretion. For example, when choosing the number and length of rods, we were guided by the fact that we wanted to get a gradually increasing collar. Carefully ensure that the collar is symmetrical. And for this it is necessary to make opposite rods of the same length. Even the slightest error of two to three millimeters can spoil the appearance of the collar.

In order for the layout to hold well on the dummy, it must be attached to the last with pins. This will save you from a variety of small errors in the work.

Along the line, the gate from the outside makes wire rings on which the net will be sewn. Pre-cut rectangular pieces with a large margin from the grid. The resulting rings will provide an excellent collar fit to the neckline of the dress.

Each of the protruding threads must be wrapped with special paper tape, which is also called "molar tape." These manipulations will make the collar look more beautiful by hiding the metal. As a result, our collar will turn out to be almost perfectly white and translucent.

Next, we make bends on the material, applying a grid to the rods. This will allow the free mesh to fit the frame and look perfectly flat, which should be our idea. We cut off the excess mesh formed in the upper part, while focusing on the tops of the rods and leaving one centimeter of stock.This stock will help us in the future to correct errors that may arise throughout. The master class does not contain errors, but people who repeat it can make mistakes.

Next, we need to remove the mesh with the resulting bends and carefully trim all the excess. Dissolve the bends, laying on the table and cut the part from translucent matter. Be careful not to confuse the external and internal sides. An error of one to two millimeters, at this stage, can lead to a loss of symmetry.

Again we apply the mesh to the frame from the wrong side. Capturing the grid and wire sequentially, we sew all this with rods. Ensure that there are no slack between sections of the collar.

We repeat the operation described above, but now, from the inside. After both pieces of matter are firmly sewn to the frame, you can perform the points of the collar. To do this, you must outline with a pin the lines of the "depressions" located between the rods and later sew them with small stitches, a white thread. In the photo below, you can clearly see that the left side is cropped and the right side is not.

For greater realism, we make a beautiful imitation of ice fragments located on the corners of the collar. To create such fragments, we used a regular CD-ROM, and any modern disk is suitable for this purpose. We cut the disk with scissors, but it crumbles! This is the secret of success, we do not need the same "ice" - each of them must be absolutely unique, and uniqueness can be obtained by chance. Another tip - it’s best to cut with wire cutters, as when you cut with scissors crumbs will fly apart, which can take a lot of time to clean.

There are a huge variety of collars for dresses. They are performed by a variety of techniques, from various materials and in different ways sit on different types of clothing. One collar may fit the dress well, but look bad on other clothes.

For those who want to learn how to make some new collars for different seasons, the following videos can be recommended:

In my opinion, to sew a snow queen's carnival costume is one of the easiest. To do this, just a little imagination)))

Let's start from the top:

Crown, it can be bought or cut out of a cathron. Then cover on both sides with a thick cloth, or with a fake and New Year's rain.

The dress can be of any style, the main thing is that it would be long and white. You can buy it again, or you can choose the style you like and you can sew it extremely.

The main distinguishing mark of the Snow Queen's costume is a cape with a high standing white (silver) collar.

How to sew with your own hands such a cloak you can see





The base should be a dark blue velvet long dress (winter night dress) with sleeves. A guipure tunic with a snowy pattern should be worn on top, the tunic should be false with sleeves with cuts and wide cuffs from above the wrist and a wide, flying hem.

It’s good to find such a hat on your head



Also blue and decorated with white snowflakes.

I don’t know how it turned out, but I wanted to draw the image of the mistress of a cruel but beautiful winter night, where the game is due to contrasting lace snowflakes on the sleeves and collar of the tunic (by the way, you can also fantasize the same but not so much flying mantle trimmed with fur.

The costume of the Snow Queen can be sewn in such an interesting way as on the diagram below with patterns and the general image:



Please note that the dress should have a flared sleeve from the elbow due to the sewn shuttlecock from the veil. Color is at your discretion.

Sewing a crescent moon:

But on the shoe count, I would just advise simply to attach buckles with a bow from cardboard, pasting with silver foil.

Any suit is assembled in parts.

The main attributes of the Snow Queen costume are a crown, a collar, a pale make-up with blue elements (eye shadow on the eyelids, maybe even lipstick, the makeup of the whole face is also interesting). For the sake of the image, you can even stick rhinestones on your face! An interesting idea is to put a strass line on the eyebrows, like this girl’s:



Also an interesting ornament can be lay out on the forehead.

Here is a typical Snow Queen crown:



And these are atypical, but also noteworthy:



The collar can be made of fans in an elementary way, here is the instruction:

And here we are talking about the dress itself:

It will be great if the fabric is not just white, but with a bluish tint, or use a combination of these colors.

I really like questions about various costumes. And the fairytale character Snow Queen is one of my favorites. And the point is not in the squabble and harmful character, but in the wealth of the outfit.

And so in order to make the costume of the Snow Queen with our own hands, we do not need to be able to sew. Many things can be purchased ready-made and decorated in the style of the Snow Queen. Sew on sequins, the edge can be with your hands and a regular needle.

DIY make-up video for the Snow Queen

And this video is a master class for the more adult Snow Queen

I think it’s unlikely that you will sew the outfit completely. The dress can be selected any white or blue, long. If you have one, we will remake it in the outfit of the Snow Queen. If not, you can sew or buy. Attributes of the Dress, so that everyone recognizes the Snow Queen: Cape, stand-up collar, high crown, blue or white shoes. Dress around with snowflakes, rain, white beads, sequins. Makeup - blue eyeshadow, pale pink or purple lipstick, no blush. Updo. The image is ready.



For the girl the same thing, but a little simplified.



In order to make the New Year's costume of the snow queen, it is worth stocking up with imagination and white material. Short playful dresses are unlikely to be suitable for such a costume; rather, the cold harsh temper of the snow queen will be able to convey a long dress to the floor. You can remake a wedding dress for this if it does not have playful flowers or you can remove them. But the white cloak will be very handy and better if it is a cloak-mantle. This can be done independently, picking up on the one hand and sewing the strings. You can tie a mania nicely around your neck and put it on your shoulders. Of course, it is important that the wrap is white or cold (ice) silver-gray. Complement the image of the crown and cold makeup.

The main elements of the Snow Queen costume are the crown, dress, and high-collar gown.



For a dress, it is better to take a white fabric with lurex. On the back seam we provide a zipper.



The bottom of the dress is decorated with a snowflake motif pattern, the essence of which is the alternation of these blocks of snowflakes.



Cape can be made of taffeta, crystal or white brocade.

The collar is cut out like this. We adorn the collar with bugles and rhinestones.



The bottom of the collar (short line) should be half the radius of the neck, enveloping it. Strengthen for stiffness the collar can be non-woven. Now we will sew it to the cape, well, at the lower corners of the collar, we sew the ropes so that the mantle would be kept being covered by them.

Well, the crown. We make it following the contours of this pattern. We turn and glue the seam. In its central part, even before gluing, you need to draw a large snowflake, this is like the clan coat of arms of the Snow Queen.



In my school years, my mother made the Snow Queen costume from her wedding dress. It was a classic white and magnificent on a corset. My mom just fit it to me in my sizes, having sewn a little along the waist, shortening the sleeves and removing the length. Then she added some accessories that are inherent in the Snow Queen - a cloak with a standing collar, a crown with sharp teeth. She also made me a magic wand.

So, we will consider each detail of the costume separately.

Everything is clear about the dress. We also decorated it with transparent beads together with beads - these are sold in the sewing department, they can be directly sewn. Sew them in a chaotic manner. You can also add a wide belt, decorated in a similar way.

A cloak can be sewn on their veils if it remains and is quite long. And you can buy tulle or taffeta and sew from this fabric according to this pattern:



We process edges and, if desired, decorate with rhinestones or beads. But we didn’t add anything there additionally.

Collar.

It is desirable to do it with sharp teeth:



First, a wire frame is made on which the fabric is sewn. A detailed workshop is here.

The crown can be done in this master class:

In general, there are a lot of options how to make a crown for the queen with your own hands.

Queen's staff.

The easiest way is to wrap a long stick with tinsel, white threads (yarn), and decorate the tip with a snowflake.

I found a very interesting costume of the Snow Queen for the girl for the New Year's matinee. The image turned out to be very effective, it is immediately clear that this is the real Queen, everything is selected with taste and very successfully combined with each other:



The girl’s mother sewed a white dress from tulle and satin. For the top, tulle (50cm) was used, which was sewn on a white knitted blouse (so that the body was more pleasant and did not shine through). You can sew on the old clothes of the girl, or use a ready-made pattern:



The skirt was sewn on a half-sun pattern made of satin fabric:



Strips of tulle were sewn onto it, which must first be seized to make ruffles. Then we decorate everything with rhinestones, stones, sequins.

The crown can also be made with your own hands here on this pattern:



We transfer the pattern to hard tulle, folded in 4 layers, fasten with a corset mustache, decorate with stones and rhinestones.

Here is a detailed workshop.

For the costume of the Snow Queen, you need to dress the floor. Any girl has a white dress, it just needs to be supplemented with accessories and the snowflake dress will turn into a queen's outfit. If you can sew, you can make a lace wrap with a standing collar, and if not, just make a collar and sew it manually to the neck of the dress. Or just take a fur cape. The dress should sparkle therefore we buy sewn rhinestones and embroider the dress.

The cloak is easy. Take the foam rubber cut the collar



now take a white satin or satin



we cut it out, we sew it, put it on the foam, we sew it from below so that the porol sat firmly and did not move any kudan. Now cut a circle of white fabric for the cape



The length is chosen such that which neck is sewn with a slanting inlay and we leave a margin for ties, we bend and hem the bottom of the cape. Now we carefully sew the collar and the cape together. Decorate with rhinestones.





Now the crown. It is fashionable to buy it ready, but it can be cut out of cardboard and pasted with the same white satin and decorated with rhinestones



Outfit ready

At the New Year's carnival festival, girls often play the role of a snowflake or a snow queen. If it is not difficult to choose an outfit for the first case, then in the latter case the problem of finding a suitable headgear may arise. Unfortunately, a beautiful crown for the snow queen is rarely found in stores. Therefore, you usually have to craft it yourself.

Ice accessory

Such a crown has a “candy” effect due to the use of non-standard material.

In the work on the product you will need:

• transparent PVC film or plastic (you can take old covers for documents);
• tulle with a silver pattern;
• cardboard;
• shiny fabric (silver);
• thread, needle;
• scissors;
• thin wire;
• silver braid;
• elastic band 2 cm wide;
• hot glue;
• decorative elements (for decoration).

First of all, the girth of the head is measured. Based on the measurement, you need to calculate the width of the base of the vertices of the future crown. There are seven of them in the product.

The height of the triangles is selected individually. It is only necessary to take into account that the central triangle will be the highest. Details adjacent to the central part are cut out 2 cm shorter than the main part. The following two triangles are 2 cm lower than the previous ones, etc. Based on the above principle, 7 triangles are cut from the PVC film. Separately cut out the same parts of tulle.

A corresponding tulle piece is superimposed on each blank. A wire is sewn along the edge of the workpieces using an overcast seam. All triangles are framed with silver braid. It is advisable to bend the figures slightly so that they better keep their shape. Finished transparent parts are collected on an elastic band. This is most conveniently done on a sewing machine. The ends of the product are connected in a ring.

To create a volumetric effect, you need to supplement the crown with opaque elements. For this, two triangles are cut out of cardboard. Since these details will be located on the front of the crown, their height should be slightly below the transparent triangles.

Cardboard blanks are lined with shiny fabric and fastened with safety pins to the front “ice” of the crown, as in the photo.

Dense and transparent parts are attached to each other. It remains to decorate the crown to your liking. In the work, you can use rhinestones, beads, sequins, lace elements.

The royal ice accessory is ready.

Quick option

Advice! It is quite realistic to make the crown faster if you do not cut each clove of the product separately, but apply the continuous pattern technique.

To do this, prepare:

• cardboard;
• fabric packaging for flowers;
• scissors;
• gum;
• silver braid;
• silver colored paper;
• threads
• glue;
• sequins in the form of snowflakes.

A pattern of the crown is drawn on the cardboard. The workpiece is cut out. The pattern is superimposed on the fabric and encircled with allowance.

The fabric part needs to be cut, then put on a cardboard layout. The allowances are folded back and glued to the cardboard.

Glue is applied from the wrong side of the workpiece, after which the crown is glued onto silver paper. Thus, unsightly allowances are hidden on the back of the product.

The crown is neatly cut. The product is decorated with large sequins in the form of snowflakes.

The contour of the crown is framed by silver braid. Depending on the quality of the braid, you can glue it with hot glue or sew it on your own.

The crown is ready. If the holiday is already "on the nose" and you urgently need to get a "snow" crown, then you can try a simplified version - a cardboard product. So that the crown does not look like a “hastily-made craft”, it is advisable to replace the cardboard with a piece of light wallpaper with a pattern.

A crown layout is drawn on it. The pattern needs to be cut.

Then the workpiece is painted with silver spray paint. Since aerosol tends to be sprayed in all directions, it is recommended to foresee this moment and perform staining in the corridor, having previously covered the floor with newspaper or polyethylene.

First, paint the inside of the product. On the front side, you need to carry out two stages of staining. After applying the first layer, you need to dry the product, and repeat the staining.

When the crown has completely dried up, you can proceed to its decor. The edges of the product are decorated with edging with rhinestones or any silver braid. The crown is decorated with additional elements corresponding to the theme of the carnival costume.

The final step is to sew a wide elastic band around the edges of the product. Measure the gum so that the crown fits tightly on the head.

Carnival headdress is ready to delight its mistress. Any proposed master class will allow you to create an accessory not only for a child, but also for an adult. This is especially true for kindergarten teachers and theater leaders.

Every New Year, parents whose children attend kindergarten have to invent and personally implement fancy dresses. In addition to the usual snowflakes and bunnies, costumes that are more complicated to manufacture are often required. One of these is the snow queen costume. And if there is no way to buy a ready-made option, skillful own pens come to the rescue. Read about how to make the Snow Queen costume yourself in today's article.

Characteristic details of the image

Probably, there are no such children, and especially parents, who would not watch the famous fairy tale of the same name. Therefore, at least an approximate image of the snow queen certainly seems. But how to make such a suit with your own hands? First, we will determine the characteristic features of the chosen hero, so that in the future it would be easier to create the desired image:

• long puffy dress;
• cape
• high collar;
• embroidered kokoshnik;
• cold complexion.

Having marked the main details, you can begin to manufacture a carnival outfit.

Snow Queen Dress

The only thing you need in a "whole" form is a finished dress. There are no special requirements for it. Unless, its length should be to the floor, and the color from white to blue, resembling snow and winter.

The style of the dress can be fitted or loose cut, with a long sleeve or with a short one. You can beat almost any dress with the desired length and appropriate color.

Having chosen a dress, you can proceed to its design. This will require silver sequins, beads, as well as white or silver tinsel, thin boas.

Tinsel the hem of the dress and the ends of the sleeves with tinsel. If the selected dress has a short sleeve, then sheathe tinsel and them. Or you can poke a very thin, better mesh long-sleeved T-shirt under the bottom of the dress and sheathe it already.

After lining the hem, we proceed to decorate with rhinestones. Sew sequins in the form of snowflakes along the entire length of the skirt from the dress using threads and needles. Sew a bead in the middle of each sequin.

Cape for the Queen

As we remember, the costume of the snow queen implies a wide wrap. It is quite possible to do it with your own hands. To do this, you need a flare fabric, such as satin. Color is selected in accordance with the tone of the dress.

A circle is marked on the fabric. Its radius will be equal to the desired length of the future cape. In the middle of a large circle, we denote a smaller circle. This is the future neck. It is advisable not to make it too small so that the child would be comfortable in a cloak. First cut out a large circle, then a small one. We process seams on a sewing machine or manually. Then, from the remaining fabric, cut a strip 4 cm wide and a length equal to the length of the girl’s neck. Having folded it in half, we sew inside the neck of the cape. You should get a kind of collar, to which a large collar will be sewn from the costume of the Snow Queen for the girl.

We sew a small clasp and, if desired, we make out the hem of the boa cape or tinsel. And just like on a dress, you can make jewelry from sequins and beads.

How to make a snow queen collar?

The collar in the costume of the snow queen for the girl should be tall and raised. You can also do it yourself. To do this, prepare the crossbar, wire and fabric with sparkles or a special coating.

First, measure your child’s neck circumference. After that, calculate the desired collar height front and back. The back should be higher than the front. Draw a sketch of the exact collar on paper. Divide it into parts, each part will be in the form of an inverted trapezoid. Transfer from paper to fabric and cut all parts in the amount of two pieces each. Sew the first collar and sew the crossbar. The curved side should be directed towards the head. Next, sew like the first, second collar and combine both together. Along the edge of the collar is reinforced with wire. Then this whole structure is sewn to the neck of the cape, to the sewn-in collar.

Kokoshnik or crown for the Snow Queen

In addition to a luxurious high collar, a crown is certainly required for the New Year's costume of the snow queen.

You can go the simplest way and cut the crown out of silver cardboard. Then glue it and decorate with stones, rhinestones and tinsel. To fix the finished crown with invisible hair. It will turn out exactly what you need.

But if you want to impress and make a real kokoshnik from fabric, then stock up on material, cardboard and decorations.

In general, the essence remains the same as with a regular cardboard crown. Cardboard, in this case, will serve as the basis, since it holds its shape well.

So, having measured the circumference of the head and adding about 4-5 cm to it, draw a sketch of the kokoshnik on paper. Choose the shape of the kokoshnik at your discretion. Then transfer the sketch to the cardboard and cut it out. Next, sheathe the cardboard blank with the selected fabric. The best choice is cardboard in white, and fabric with a holographic effect. Then, sew Velcro on the left ends of the kokoshnik, for greater convenience. At the end, decorate with rhinestones and sequins, gluing them with glue. As you can see, making a kokoshnik for the Snow Queen costume with your own hands is not at all difficult.

Snow Queen Makeup

Since the selected image is made for the girl, then there can be no talk of full-fledged makeup. But something can still be done. For example, the main distinguishing feature of the snow queen's costume is the pale complexion. To do this, slightly whiten the face of the baby with powder of the lightest shade. And on the lips, apply a drop of foundation to make them paler. Do-it-yourself snow queen costume can be considered finished!

Here is such a collar for the harsh Snow Queen :-)

On the mannequin, mark with chalk the line of the dress's gate. Along the line, we build the frame of the future collar from wire (I made long loops, and then twisted them, it turned out firmly and evenly). The number and height of the rods is arbitrary, to your taste and sense of harmony. I had the task of making them gradually increasing from the center of the neckline to the neck. It is necessary to ensure that the opposite wire rods are the same length and the collar is symmetrical.
To prevent our layout from moving, we attach it to the dummy with pins. We twist the wire along the line of the gate itself from the outside into rings, a coarse mesh will be sewn onto them later (cut an oblong rectangular piece from the mesh, with a good margin). These "rings" subsequently provide a reliable fit of the collar to the neckline of the dress.

We wrap each sticking-out wire “thread” with masking (paper) tape. This will hide the metal, because our collar should be translucent and white.

We pin the net to the rods, making bends on the material so that the net freely fits the frame over the entire area and does not wrinkle anywhere. We trim the excess mesh from above, focusing on the tops of the rods, leaving 1 cm of stock (just in case).

I did not take the next steps, unfortunately, because I haven’t discovered the Country yet, so I’ll just describe the actions:

You need to remove the mesh with stabbed bends and gently cut off the excess. Unfold the bends, spread them on a table and cut another 1 piece of light translucent material on this "pattern". Do not mix sides (left and right), as even if it seems to you that the frame turned out to be symmetrical, the eye can fail. :-)

Again we pin the net to the frame from the wrong side. And we sew to the rods, capturing sequentially, the mesh and wire rod. There should be no sagging between the collar sections.

Now we are doing the same operation with transparent fabric, only from the inside.
When both pieces of matter are firmly sewn to the frame, you can do the "points" of the collar. Mark with pins the line of "troughs" between the rods and sew them with fine stitches with white thread. Then cut off the excess, retreating from the edge of the groove by half a centimeter. In this photo you can see that one half is already trimmed, and the other is not.

To decorate, we will imitate fragments of ice on the corners of the collar. I took an unnecessary disc and cut it with ordinary scissors into pieces. Caution - the disc may crumble and the fragments will fly apart, animals or children can pick them up. Therefore, this operation is best done in pliers and in isolation from unreasonable and overly curious creatures.
Then randomly stick the pieces on top of the collar.
