We already made a simple elasticated mask for this character which is ideal as a last minute Halloween craft because it's so quick and easy. This tutorial is to make a Maleficent horned headband which takes a little longer to make but looks better. This looks especially good with long dark hair, because it is easy to slip on and off and the headband looks almost invisible. This means the curved horns stand out even more.

My little girl wanted to dress up as the evil fairy witch, Maleficent, from Disney's latest Sleeping Beauty movie. I wasn't going to spend a small fortune buying a headpiece when it's something that can be made pretty easily. I drew up an outline for a pair of curved horns and am sharing them in a free printable Maleficent horn template for other parents out there to save and print off as well. You can even print these off just a little larger and use it to make an adult costume accessory as well. As well as the free printable you get on this page, I've also written a couple of tutorials on using this design to make up some easy Halloween costume accessories. Grab your printable and get the tutorials and how to info as well while you're here.

This detailed photo tutorial is going to show you how to make your own Disney villain inspired bracelet with a real Maleficent evil fairy theme from Sleeping Beauty. The fun rubber band bracelet design combines two cool crafts that both adults and kids can enjoy by using Rainbow Loom bands and fused Perler or Hama Beads. The colored rubber bands make up really a nice stretchy wrist bracelet to wear and the beads are used to create a large charm that resembles the evil Queen Maleficent's face. Or you can also make a longer pattern with the bands to make up a necklace or something else like a keychain instead. This is a great craft opportunity for both adults and children to work together on a project with something that is fun to make and fairly easy. My daughter and I really had fun making this and she loved wearing it when she dressed up as this character for Halloween. Enjoy the tutorial.

Disney's version of Sleeping Beauty contains one of the most magnificent villains ever created and that is, of course, the complex character Maleficent. My daughter really enjoyed this movie as well and she was keen on having an easy pattern and design that she could make up by using her fused Perler beads, so I made a Maleficent Perler bead pattern which you can enjoy using too with this simple to follow photo tutorial. This small design makes a finished project which measures around 2.5 x 2 inches. That is a good size for a bag charm, a necklace pendent, a keychain, an embellishment for a handmade card or gift tag or a large, oversize bracelet charm.
