How to Attach Horns to a Headband
So, it isn’t a step-by-step set of instructions since I forgot to bring images as I made my play costume initially. But, it is a lesson on how you might hold some damn horns on your head when playing as a very creepy guy.
Also, it’s a guide when you choose to carry a hat with those horns but don’t want to reveal a headpiece. And the thing I’m going to teach you helps you to fairly quickly get the horns up and down (in just time your head begins feeling painful).
Summary: In order to attach horns to a headband, start by cutting a piece of elastic fabric that is slightly larger than the horn. Next, using a sewing needle and thread, sew the elastic fabric piece to one end of the horn. Be sure to leave a small opening at the top of the horn so that you can attach the headband. Finally, insert the other end of the horn into the opening in the elastic fabric, and secure the horn with a band clamp or tie.
Required components
- Styrophorus (conical)
- Plastic (Plastic cover used)
- Clue / cloth / hot adhesive / a few other adhesive material
- Magnets (relatively powerful ones; I only purchased some for leisure activity)
- Broad headband made of plastic (ideally wig color)
Instructions
I can’t capture photos of the horn being formed because the pins show it quite right. You begin with a plastic cup and pass a string around mid-sized, or I used to use a pipe cleaner across the center of it. Form your pipe cleaner/cord to the horns form you like, and use newspapers and aluminum foil and sticky tape to create your horn form. When I had the structure
I wanted the coating to attach more strongly, so I wrapped my horns in adhesive tape. Around midway through, I ran out of sticky tape and then used painter’s tape. This didn’t work as well, and I ended up using a Modge podge remover before spraying color on my large and broad horn.
I was trying to find a way to make the horns on my headband look more updated. I tried several times before I finally got it to look the way I wanted. The paper cup was not glued to the headband at first, but I eventually got it to stay put.

Before coloring, I fixed the full round to the horn (I attempted this first while artwork, then ended redoing, you’ll know how whenever I’m done). So I placed adhesive tape on the hairband about where I needed the horn, and the horn was sticking there.
I needed to take the second loop and fasten it underneath the hairband onto the lower part of the horn. I was using plenty of adhesives to wrap the hairband in between the felt pieces. It then fastened to the horn that felt excessive. This provided further headband stabilization. Eventually, I needed a substantial sticky tape and tapped it over which I already vigorously stuck the additional felt to hide the felt to render the horn appear smoother again.
I drew a shining black on both sides. I did the same method in producing tiny and big horns but using a paper cup as my foundation. The horns finished being quite durable and lightweight. I absolutely cannot wait to see her performances in them!
