:: diy victorian-themed headband ::

I was invited to a famous blogger, Shazwani Hamid's tea party last month. The theme was Victorian and since Victorian is sync with lace, satin, pearl, velvet..... and also wearing headpiece, I intended to wear something on my head too. It was a last minute decision actually but luckily I still got some felt fabric and balance of black lace used for my wedding hantaran last time so I decided to customise one of my headband into a so called Victorian-themed headband. 

I purposely bought this black satin bow headband to be worn on scarf but it looked too simple.

Using felt fabric as the base, I first cut the fabric into a round shape and sew the lace around it.

 

 The fabric was then attached to the headband with a pin so I could easily take it off if I don't need it later. 

 The front view but it still looked plain.

To enhance the look, I then sew black crystal beads and faux pearl beads around them

and ta-daaaaa
