Help! Our helmet looks more like a jester's hat--all the fringes are falling down around the headband! What did I do wrong??

You've got me laughing here! Some days just go like that - maybe the Lord thought a nice jester's hat would give you a needed laugh today! Maybe you'll think ours looks like a jester's hat too, but I thought it turned out fine:

Otherwise, here's a link to Daisy's dd's Philistine helmet, which probably turned out even more realistically than mine:

To fix it, just place a long strip of Scotch tape around the inside of the fringes, about an inch up from the bottom of the headband. My son cut his strips down too far when he made his Philistine helmet this year, and we had the same effect. The tape inside the fringes fixed the helmet beautifully.
