Fabric Flower Wedding Hair Accessories

We touched on making fabric flowers in one of our previous posts. Fabric flowers make great accents for any accessory project, and on this occasion, we used them on hairpieces customized for a wedding's female entourage hair pieces.

The wedding motif was purple and gray and the female entourage's gowns were predominantly made with chiffon fabric. The technique we used to make fabric flowers was simple stitching over long fabric. We pulled the fabrics tightly together to complete the 'petal illusion'. The beading accents used were; rhinestones, fresh water pearls, and faux pearls. These materials give the flowers a sophisticated look apt for a formal event. Since the bridesmaids' and secondary sponsors' hairpieces had alligator clip settings, we decided to make the flower girls' hairpieces into headbands.

The Practical Bride

It has become customary for soon-to-wed couples to shoulder the entourage's outfits and tokens. Of course you’d also want your bridal entourage to be beautiful, as they march before your grand entrance.  Weddings can be expensive, but it should not prevent you from being practical. There are ways to achieve the wedding you have always dreamed of without breaking the bank.

Practical tip #1 : Hit two birds with one stone. Skip the heavy beaded gowns and instead add a necklace to complement their ensemble. In addition, they can use the necklaces even after your wedding. 

Practical tip #2: Give your female godparents a necklace and bracelet set which they can opt to wear during your wedding. Choose a set that matches your motif.

Practical tip #3: If you want more embellishment, you can give embellished necklaces to your entourage and godparents. You can even choose to give them different designs but maintain the feel of your theme and motif for each piece. 

Costume jewelry has its own perks. There are three reasons why they grow in popularity: price, variety and versatility. They are more affordable than “real” jewelry, but can be as elegant and priceless nonetheless. The great thing about costume jewelry is that you can choose a design which will go with your theme and motif. Depending on the material and design intricacy, you can get a great deal for your money. Plus, trinkets are a woman’s best friend; your female entourage and godparents will truly appreciate it. It’s something you will see them use even after your wedding.
