DIY DVF Inspired Head Band

If you saw the 2009 DVF spring runway show then you will remember the beautiful headbands. They were floral headbands with a super bohemian flare. I love them and I always planned on making my own.

Here we are in 2012 and since there are still lots of floral patterns on the spring runways I thought I could get away with it this year. I found these gorgeous flowers at Micheal's and decided I was going to do it! Here is my DIY DVF headband in Instagram form.
Supplies: silk flowers, a headband covered with fabric, ribbon, needle and thread

Wrap ribbon around the headband, you can also braid it. 

Sew the ribbon to the headband on the inside

Sew flowers onto an extra piece of ribbon

Sew ribbon with flowers on to head band

Add extra ribbon to the side and extra flowers if you'd like

Finished product


Sorry that was a lot of photos. It was easy to make, but very tedious. I'm happy I stuck through it I love the finished product. If you have a glue gun it would probably be a lot easier and faster.

I'm excited to wear it. I think I'm going to wear it either for Valentine's day and pair it with something sweet or maybe I'll wear it on my birthday and try to make it look a little more girly edgy. What do you think?
