Fabulous Baby Fascinator Headband

Oh the creative mind!  I do wish I was much more creative than I am.  I love the cute bows and headbands, but these fascinator's are just fabulous!  Would love to take the credit for them, but as you are aware, these have been around for a while.  I really never had any reason to give it a try.  With that being said, I auditioned several flowers, rosettes, and jewels to see what looked the best for what I needed.  Below are photo's of those auditions, and then the final.

These were fairly simple.  Supplies are:  headband, flowers/feathers/jewels or other embellishments like bows, ribbons.  Whatever suits your fancy.  You also will need scissors, glue, felt, needle and thread (or you can do what I did and stitch it with the serger), and netting.

Place your embellishments so they are aesthetically pleasing to the eye.  It doesn't have to be symmetrical. I'm a throw it together type of person, most of the time.  I go by what feels right to me.  Many of you might like it more balanced or some symmetry to your design.  I do recommend trying different ways to see what feels right for you.

Once I have found what I like with my combination of embellishments, I then glue them together.  Most people will use a hot glue gun and there is nothing wrong with that.  I tend to use Fabri-tac.  You will start from the bottom and build up and out.

Hope you give this a try.  Once you have decided it only takes a few minutes to put it together.  It's the auditioning process that takes a while.

AUDITIONS

 Here I tried two colors of the flowers with small gray florettes with pearls

This is just the gray flower with large sparkly embellishment and tulle

 Here is one with a smaller crystal embellishment and tulle

Here it is with a beautiful pearl with rhinestones  Although I love the way it looks, it was missing the gray/silver look that would work with the dress

My final decision.  I used the smaller rhinestone and made the netting a little shorter.  

Very simple yet elegant.  And goes perfectly with the fabric of the bunting.
