Senior Crowing Prep

Senior Crowing Prep

By Sarah Lemos

Here come the seniors, walking in the halls for their last year. Heads held high with their senior crowns on top; each one being unique, wonderful, and representing each of their personas. There are many ways to decorate a senior crown, and if you are still at a stump and have no idea where to begin here are a few ideas:

First, go out and find a crown stencil. Most people get them for free at their local Burger King. Or you can go freestyle and do it yourself.  From their it is all to your imagination, and the key of it is to make it as unique as yourself as possible. Go to Michaels, Walmart, Cvs, or even the dollar store and pick out a whole bunch of decorations: glitter, flowers, construction paper, fuzz, letter stencils, or even diamonds and rhinestones.

One of the easiest senior crown examples would be just a single crown. To decorate it, you can make it ombre (dark from bottom and light to the top). You could put your name and class or senior and your class. And if you want to represent your jaguar pride a bit add a small paw print on either side. This crown would work for either gender.

Another easy example, just with a little more to make it stand out, is to layer two of the crown on top of each other and one of them can be one color and the other a different one. On the top one you can use stencils to spell put your name or just seniors or even your class. After that add diamonds or rhinestones on the tip of the crown to add a little bling. Or you can add a few little stickers that represent what you like (you can find these usually at Walmart or Michaels). Again, this crown also works for either gender.  

Now for a more complicated crown. First grab your crown and pick out a stand out color. After that do the same thing and decide what words, name, or numbers you are going to put on it, but instead of writing it or using glitter, you can make them pop out with a thicker material cut outs. After that border the bottom edges with something that represents you (flowers, fuzz, string, cars) and would make your crown that one to stand out. Then at the back you could put a big bow or also on the top point put diamond or rhinestones.
