Does anyone know where i can find a DIY for veils. I would like to make a veil to go on my cowboy hat.

There are a great number of books, pamphlets, etc. about veils. What it all comes down to is tulle (very inexpensive at most any fabric store) that is gathered and draped. You can get it in diamond white, white, candlelight, or ivory at most fabric stores. I would get a piece and play with it until you get the effect you desire. Despite the prices charged by the retail trade, most veils can be made for under $20.00 worth of supplies.

I made mine for my wedding. I went to the local fabric store and purchased the material and the "fringy" stuff to go around the edges.

You can also try Michaels. They have several DIY veils packages.
