A crown fit for a queen

She already thinks she runs the house, why not adorn her tiny little head with something that will fit the role?

Plus, you've got to love a princess-y dress up prop that isn't pink, plastic, or sparkly, but is still totally adorable.

Rita J Felt's Petite Crown Headband will make any child feel regal during dress-up, a birthday party, or just when her heiness travels to the supermarket.

Handmade in Lithuania of golden-yellow wool and affixed to a flexible headband, this comfy crown not only conveys stature, it keeps the hair from fluttering into her eyes. Just make sure she knows she still has to finish her vegetables. Not even a queen can get out of that. -Christina

Rita J Felt's Petite Crown Headband is available in her Etsy store.
