Start by taking one headband and cutting it in half. Put on the other one and decide where you want the horns positioned and mark with a pencil

One at a time hold the horns where you marked and use your hot glue gun. Put lots and lots of glue. Hold it in place while waiting for it to dry. Once dry repeat on the other side.

Now it’s time to paint. Paint all over once and let dry. And then add another coat.

(Note if the headbands you chose don’t hold paint well you may need to sand them down with sandpaper to roughen them up before painting)

(Optional) Before painting add any raised embellishments you would like with the hot glue.

That’s All Folks
