Quick, Easy, Cute & HUGE!

Ya know what I love? Attaching this flower almost as big as my daughter's head to a headband and watching her eyes light up in delight! This little project was super easy. Get ready . . . I'm gonna show you how!

First go to the dollar store or craft store and pick out roses in colors you like. I went for the super cheap $1.49 roses at Michaels Craft. Bring that flower on home and take the whole thing apart, removing all the plastic pieces until you have just petals, like this:

Now get out your trusty glue gun and reconstruct the flower, laying the petals to your liking and making it flatter than it was before. Then you can find embellishments, like old buttons or pins to put in the center.

Next, I made this little rosette from a strip of leftover fabric. I hot glued it to the center of my flower and then topped it with this little bird emblem I found on clearance at Michaels.

Once everything was good and dry, I glued it onto a head band I got for $1.00 at Wal-mart. Hannie B. was so excited she schemed up an outfit to wear to school today just so she could wear a head band!

Total time to make three headbands: 20 minutes

Total cost per headband: $3.50

Smile on daughters face: Priceless.
