Lace & Pearl Headband

For some reason I have not been feeling very crafty lately, it feels like I've just run out of inspiration or something. Well i knew i had to get out of this 'craft slump' so to say. And came up with this little beauty. What do you think?



Here's how i made it. I used some lace i had on hand

 And glued it around and around to make this little lace flower and then put a button in the middle to make it a little cuter.

Then i measured stretchy lace the size i needed it for my daughter's head and just hot glued the ends together.

Next i cut out some pieces of felt and glued some pearl beads onto it....yes, yes i know the shapes are not exactly the same but it didn't bother me it's in no way a "perfect" project.

After i finished that i cut out rectangle shape piece of felt and glue my bead 'creations' to the end of it.

And then glued the flower in the middle

I then took the lace headband i made and glued it down,making sure to glue the seams down so they wouldn't show.

Next i cut out another rectangle piece of felt and slapped  glued it on top of the lace,and trimmed the corners.

There you have it!

As always there are SO many possibilities when you make headbands but this cost me $0 because i used what i had laying around.

Stuffing chocolate in her mouth....as always a great model for mommy.

Have Fun!
