Fabric Flower Hair Accessories for Wild Orchid Crafts

Hello, everyone and happy Monday!! It's my turn to post on the Wild Orchid Crafts blog and I'd love for you to stop by if you have time :) This month, the designers were challenged to step outside of our crafty box and create projects that were different from our norm.

For my projects today, I created hair accessories using gorgeous fabric flowers.

For the headband (that could be used for a wedding) I used Almond Blossom, Almond Blossom and Babies Breath Flowers.

I also used Pearl Drop Trim, Flat Back Pearl String, Pearl Spray, White Stamens and Bead Berry Sprays.

Let me introduce you to my model...this is Francesca, or as I call her, Franny :)

Isn't she beautiful??!! Franny was a birthday gift from my parents last year :) One of my favorite things to do is dress her for the holidays.

Here she is, in all her patriotic glory, celebrating the Fourth of July :)

For this barrette, I used Autumn Blossom and Babies Breath Flowers.

I adhered the flower to a piece of grungeboard that is sturdy but malleable. I then glued it to the barrette.

For this barrette, I used Autumn Blossom and Babies Breath flowers, as well as Bead Berry Sprays, Skeleton Leaves, Mulberry Leaves and Pearl Sprays.

This beautiful crinkle ribbon is St. Tropez Gold from the Tropical Summer bundle.

Salt Life is an Impression Obsession die. Beneath the WOC flowers are Kaiser Craft Tropical Leaves. This gorgeous crinkle ribbon is Aruba Blue from the Tropical Summer bundle.
