It would be the perfect statement piece for a 1920s dress up party! You can make it as outgoing or as understated as you'd like.

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Fabric Glue
  • Ribbon
  • Fusible Interfacing
  • Appliqué

Steps (7 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    First take applique and cut it out. The applicque that I'm using is actually an cheap beaded dress that I found at goodwill and cut up the fabric.

  2. 2

    Next iron on a heavy iron-on-interfacing (pellon works great) to the back of the beaded fabric.

  3. 3

    Now carefully cut the excess off.

  4. 4

    Take your applique pieces and arrange them in a way that you like and pin it to a long piece of ribbon that can wrap around your head.

  5. 5

    Now glue the applique to the ribbon.

  6. 6

    Let sit for a few hours until completely dry.

  7. 7

    Tada! Go all out and have fun with your new headpiece!
