How to Add Jewelry to a Princess Costume

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village I am going to show you how to make a princess costume. What princess would be complete would be complete without some crown jewels? While our princess may not have as many jewels as the king or queen or some of the other royalty she still needs to have some flair to her outfit. And one of the best things you can do is have on some nicer rings. Now there are two ways to do this. You can have on actual nice jewelry perhaps yours. Because you are a princess you are going to need some crown jewels. And while you may not quite as many as the king or queen have just yet you are definitely going to have a couple of pieces of nice jewelry. Now there are two ways to do this. For example, take rings, you can borrow or perhaps you already have some very nice pieces of ring jewelry if so you can consider wearing them out there. Perhaps you have three or four. And you are going to lay it on a little thicker than normal, you are a princess after all. And you are going to put them on your hands. And you are going to look exquisite. You are basically going to emphasize your wealth, your power. That is what jewelry is for. Not just to show that you are part of the common folk around there who I guess are only wearing wooden rings now a days. So yeah, you can consider wearing a nicer piece of jewelry that you already own. Now if that makes you uncomfortable especially say wearing four or five pieces of it. You can always get gaudy fake jewelry. Plastic jewelry for really cheap at a lot of costume a thrift stores or a lot of convenience stores even. So that is another option. In addition to the ring you can also consider wearing nicer necklaces. This is another place where you get a lot of bang for the buck. You may already have a lot of necklaces around the house that you already own. You may already have some particularly nice pendants. You also could have of course some jewelry necklaces as well. Same with the ring. You can consider either wearing something of your own or if it makes you uncomfortable you can wear something fake, something plastic, something not bought in a really nice store. Something to keep in mind though unlike rings you don't want to over do lots of necklaces on your princess. These aren't like having a lot of necklaces on a hippie."
