How do I give my polar bear his crown back?

I bought a heavily discounted polar bear because he’d lost his crown, thinking I could improvise something to replace it. He hasn’t got his ruffle either 😢 The thing is I have no creativity and no imagination. So I’m asking you lovely ladies if you have any thoughts on how I can make him fabulous again?

Most people don't realise that very few wild polar bears even wear crowns. The tradition of crowning polar bears was started by Coca-Cola a hundred years ago. I say leave him crown free and let his natural magnificence show.

Google small plastic silver crown, loads come up, I’d just buy one to replace, same with small plastic silver garland.

snip off a tinsel end for a garland, and if you have children get them to cut out and be-glitter a crown, and get a proper mini cake-topper one to stick on next year.

He is naturally fabulous and that’s why I bought him. I’m just a bit sentimental and thought he might want his sparkle back.

I'd give him a laurel crown using leaves from some of the door wreaths or garlands in lots of shops.

Thank you. Exactly this sort of thing I’m thinking of, only he’s quite small so will need a tiny crown. I was thinking of maybe a charm but wouldn’t know how to attach it.

Ah, it’s always SO hard to estimate polar bear size correctly over the internet.
in that case, i suggest you save up for some proper regalia, e.g: https://shop.westminster-abbey.org/miniature-three-crown-set
