How to Make 4 Different Kinds of Flower Hair Accessories | Aelida


Flower hair accessories are very pretty and feminine. Whether you have big ones or small ones sitting on your hair, you’re sure to look gorgeous with flower accessories on your hair. You can find some really cute flower hair accessories at boutiques and even at department stores like Wal-mart and Target and they are not very expensive either. In fact, you can get a whole pack for a little over $7.

However, the flower hair accessories that you can find from these stores will not always be in the same size or formation that you would ideally want them to be. There may also be specific designs that you would want to have but would not be able to find in these stores. So, as a solution to this dilemma, why not make your own flower hair accessories instead?

One flower hair accessory you can make is a flower headband. You have the choice to either make a simple flower headband or one that’s big enough to be called a head piece. In order to make this kind of flower hair accessory, you will need a blank headband base. Choose your blank headband depending on your hair color to make it more natural-looking. If you have black hair, choose a black one, if you’re blond then choose one that’s yellow or brown and so on. You will also need a plastic flower of your choice. If you want to make a lot of different flower hair accessories, you can buy a bunch of assorted plastic flowers from Home Depot or even from Hobby Lobby or at the Dollar Store. Once you have your headband base, use hot glue to attach the flower of your choice on the headband. You can cover the entire headband with small flowers or you can also just put a big one on one side and add little accents like beads and rhinestones.

Another flower hair accessory you can do is a flower hair clip. There are a two options for this one. The first option you have is to take fake baby’s breath flowers that have wires in the stem and twist the stem around a bobby pin so that the main flower design is at the end of the bobby pin. The next option is to use a snap hair clip or an alligator hair clip and glue the fake flower of your choice at the end.
