The star measures approximately 5 inches in height and 6 inches across from point-to-point. Inside the star is a sound chip that emits a twinkling sound when the wand is moved. The tiara measures approximately 5 inches in height and is secured with an elastic strap band. The tiara is decorated with faux jewels and silver glitter. The white sash has the word “Princess” sewn on it in pink letters and has silver frill at its end.

The cover has a gold crown pattern in its center, with the crown decorated with multi-colored faux jewels. Beneath the crown, the word “Princess” is sewn in yellow letters against a pink background. The chair cover slips over the back of a chair to transform the chair into a “throne” and is used for decorative purposes only. It is not intended to protect a chair. The articles all work together to create a play environment for a young girl role-playing as a princess.
