Step 1Gather your materials and plug in your hot glue gun.
-
Step 2Measure your head where you prefer the band to sit. Subtract 1" from that measurement and cut trim accordingly.
-
Step 3Cut a generous length of pearl chain trim - lay it out on your headband to see how much length of trim you want dangling around your head. Cut accordingly.
-
Step 4Cut an additional 2" piece of velvet trim.
-
Step 5Create headband by affixing two ends together, reinforcing with 2" piece as shown. Let cool completely.
-
Step 6Using your threaded needle, secure the pearl chain to the headband with a loop stitch as shown.
Tip: Be semi-arbitrary. The look is more edgy and fashion-forward if the sections hang unevenly.
-
Step 7Thread needle. Space pearl trim out on headband as shown.
-
Step 8Pull thread taught in the back so its visibility is minimized on the front.
Tip: If desired, attach additional jewels/charms to the pearl chain with jewelry hoops - be creative!
-
Step 9Pin metallic flower to headband.
-
Step 10If you're feeling ambitious, remove center of flower (will include several layers of petals). You'll have to glue or stitch the remaining layers in place. This will lighten up the accessory and open up new DIY possibilities...
-
Step 11If you have some flat back gems laying around, this is the perfect chance to use them.
-
Step 12Add a gem to the center of the flower with hot glue for extra drama.
-
Step 13Voila - try it on!
