The icing on the cake for your “mersona” are mermaid crowns. Weather you are a professional mermaid, or dressing up for Halloween, a mermaid crown will take it to the next level.
Below are some examples and fun ideas. WARNING: These crowns are all from Etsy and some are one of a kind. This means, the likely hood of you buying this actual crown are slim. However, you will get some style ideas, and possibly DIY that bad boy yourself!
I’m starting with some dressier options. I love when the mix shells, stones, and even metals.
Adding sea fans or starfish is an easy way to heighten the crown.
These icicles are enchanting. This is for those arctic mermaids. Beautiful!
You don’t always need to be super fancy. Shells and pearls are a great place to start.
Different shapes and colors of shells can imitate a queens crown.
A headband of small seashells works if you have other extravagant mermaid jewelry on.
A seashell headband with larger shells creates more of a crown look.
Don’t forget the starfish! I would have never thought of this!
A tiara is a more delicate head piece. For example, a queen would wear a crown, but a princess would wear a tiara.
You could buy a standard tiara and super glue a few shells and pearls on if you are looking for a quick 5 min DIY project.
These are called moon stones but work for mermaids. I like this look. If you don’t want anything heavy this is a great option.
Crystal crowns are a recent invention. Made from Quartz crystals found in the earth, they are nothing short of magical.
Usually sown together with wire and attached to a head band creates a whimsical tiara.
Some artists combine mettle to imitate tree branches. Best part about Quartz crystal crowns is they come in a variety of colors.
Crystals come in different shapes and sizes. This crown has a more Aztec feel, and portrays a halo more than a tiara.
