Rose Headbands

I've been wanting flower headbands for some time now, and so I was happy when I found this link. Calamity Kim teaches how to make just the kind of fabric flowers that I was imagining in my head. They are surprisingly easy, quick, and very fun.

This headband has two roses made from 5 inch squares, and the center is made from an 8 inch

Adding feathers makes it fun - perhaps I'll make a peacock one next!
And since the headbands look better when they are actually ON someone, you get to see pictures of me. I didn't have a model . . .

ps- I purchased the plain headbands at Hobby Lobby

i'm a big supporter of rose-covered headbands with feathers!! Woo-woo! Too bad I can't wear headbands without getting a splitting headache. :(

Very cute! I can't wait to make one (or pay you to make it for me). You look beautiful in the pictures.

What do you mean no model? You are a gorgeous model!

That's what I was thinking. YOU are the model. And that 3 rose one is very lovely, like you said. The black one is very nice, too. :-)
