Oh, you must be kidding. But your wedding-day ensemble will not go unfinished. You can make not one, but two headpieces with less than $10. Can’t believe it? Follow the tutorial below and get ready to surprise yourself.
Wedding Headband
Materials:
— lace applique
— ivory ribbon
Tools:
— super glue (or fabric glue)
— scissors
Instructions:
1. Decide where you want your applique to lay by holding it and the ribbon against your head.
2. Use super glue or fabric glue and attach the applique to the ribbon in the desired location. Let it dry for at least 10 minutes.
3. Use your scissors to cut your ribbon with a v-shaped edge.
4. Wear your headband. Be a beautiful bride.
Lace appliques can be purchased online or from a local fabric store. For your ribbon, find something that is 1 inch wide and 39 inches long. First, take your ribbon and applique and hold them against your head to determine where you want them to lay. Then glue the applique in place.
Once the glue is completely dry, you’re ready to wear your headpiece and rock it with a glam ‘do.
