    I just finished my very own DIY hair flower! I followed the tutorial by Ms. Pineapple:

    Here it is!

    It was sooo easy. I sewed mine togther rather than hot gluing it, but you could do either. Not really any pitfalls, it went really smoothly.

    I'm so surprised it turned out so well. Plus, it was WAY cheaper than buying one.

    Thanks for the praise guys! I got a lackluster response form the MOH(she's not all that into teh wedding stuff), so I knew I could count on the Bees!

    I took in-progress, tutorial-style pictures while I made it, if anyone is interested in me making my own tutorial.

    Good Job.  It looks Great!  It's amazing, I tried several hair flowers on in the bridal salon that ranged from $120-$350, and yours looks just like them.
