    so i was playing with the layers of my hair flower this weekend. I am making it by layering 2 layers from a fake flower, then some leaves from the lace of my mom's dress, then another smaller fake flower layer. Im then going to add a flower from the lace to the center with some swarovski crystals. I want this flower to be pretty big. It is probably 5-6 inches. My question- how do i get it to be not sooo flat. I dont want it to be all poofy but as it is now it just lies limp.   thoughts??

    have you tried folding it in quarters and sewing it on the back?  not sure if I am explaining this well enough...here is the link to Martha's tutorial
