My latest crafting project! I, like most bloggers lately, have really fallen in love with the new Lula issue. I wanted to interpret the styles through some form of creation, so I decided to do my favorite thing - make hair pieces.
I made three hair pieces that were inspired by beautiful Lula photos (I'm actually working on another, but it's not so ready yet. Darth Vader is modeling it for now). Here is what I ended up with, from some of my favorite articles and shoots of Lula's latest issue..
Red feathers and vintage velvet bow. I sewed it onto a metallic hair clip in the back.
Soft pink bow headband with vintage lace.
Gold headband with royal blue rosettes. I made the little blue flowers by cutting thin scraps of fabric (from a nightgown I hemmed), rolling them into roses, and gluing them.
What do you guys think?

These hair pieces are so lovely and clever - I'm inspired to make my own!
These are so beautiful! I love the juxtaposition of the feather and the bow and the blue rosettes are just the right amount of fancy.
I'm also inspired to make my own now! I haven't in a while, but it feels like there are limitless pretty things you can put in your hair. I can't wait to see your future hair pieces!

Those are all lovely!! We definitely need to get on this clothing/crafting swap! (I just added the craft part)
I'm jealous and glad to see you getting to make crafts in your home!
Gorgeous! I love how clearly you can see the inspiration for each piece. Makes me want to pick up some feathers and such from work and make something similar.
Great hairpieces! I simply cannot get enough of bows these days!
I finally tracked down a copy of the current issue of Lula and have basically looked through it every day since! ;) I just love your versions of Lula-inspired headbands and fascinators; especially the lace bow! So creative!
