Frozen Themed - Elsa Hair Braid / Wig

Frozen inspire - Elsa Hair Braid / Wig for children. 

This is a simple tutorial for the Frozen Themed Elsa Hair Braid/Wig.

This took me about an hour. EZpartyDIY yah.

All items can be bought from Diaso.

Material Needed

The Braid/ Wig:-
- Yarn (Light yellow)
- Ribbons

The Tiara:-
- Crochet Coaster
- Crochet Design Pad (From the Diaso DIY section)
- Elastic Bands

Get something to loop your yarn with; I got the table legs which is about 1.2m in length. You can get a cardboard or maybe just two chairs. This braid/wig is for my two years old girl and the length is just nice, you may need longer if you have a taller girl.

I did 50 loops around the table legs but it really depends on the thickness you like for the braid. It may be lesser if the yarn is thicker.

I tie a ribbon at one end before cutting it at the other ends.

 

Find a place to secure the top of the yarn where the ribbon is. Separate the yarn in 3 equal portion and start making your braid.

Tie the end of the braid with your yarn and trim the ends neat. Loop the end of the braid into the hold where the ribbon is, this will make an adjustable head band for your child to wear on.

* Parents, please be careful with this as it can be a hazard for young child to play with without supervision.  The adjustable head band is fun but it can also strangle the child. I went another step to secure the size of the head band with a string of yarn so it can’t be pulled.

Make two of this bow. I used 2 different ribbons with the blue color from the Frozen movie. Place the ribbon as shown on above picture. Cut another ribbon and tie a dead knot in the middle. Trim the ends of the ribbon.

Use the ribbon where the dead knot is tied on the bow to tie onto the braid/wig. One at the end and another one to replace the first ribbon.

I found this crochet item from Diaso and think it is perfect for the tiara for the braid/wig. Fold the crochet coaster half, the back higher than the front. Place the crochet pad infront and sew all together.

Cut two elastic bands that fit nicely at the back of the tiara with a cross. I lightly burn the ends so it doesn’t thread. Sew the bottom ends onto the tiara. Place the braid/wig under the cross and sew the top ends and you are done.

With her short short hair this far (2years), she is so happy wearing it.
