Nefertiti Hat


This home made hat is based on the Nefertiti hat/crown


Nefertiti was a Queen of Egypt from 1370 BC to 1330 BC


This hat was made as a lrp prop and not historically accurate in any shape or form, plus its made of cardboard and felt.


To make this hat I made a basic paper pattern by trial and error and then transferred it to some thicker card.


Lots of glue and staples later I got the basic shape.


Which I then covered in felt and gold leather look fabric.


before finally glueing on some gem cake decorations.
