Hair combs and headbands

[hummingbird521]

Does anyone know how to make hair combs and headbands using silk flowers? I want to save money by making as much stuff as possible myself. I would like the flower girl to wear a headband with silk flowers on it. nothing extravagant but something simple that looks real. I would like to have hair combs made from the same thing. anyone got any suggestions?

Why not pick up some inexpensive white or clear headbands at the dollar store. Then whip stitch silk flowers on. I would say glue.... but sometimes they fall off.

Craft stores carry combs and hair picks and that type of thing. Just use floral wire or hot glue. I made my hair pick, sort of. I found a pin at an antique store and my fiance sodered it to a hair pick. It looks really gorgeous!

I have seen a ton of books and classes for that kind of stuff at Micheals the craft store, if you are not near a micheals, any craft store should be able to help you.
