    Soo... I am pretty happy with how it is turning out...

    I havent attached the Bling in the Center yet... I am debating on adding some Feathers (if i can find the nice ones)( i have some nice purple ones but I dunno if I would want to add color or maybe some more tulle underneath.. This will be the only thing I will be wear no Veil.. I thought i wanted a birdcage till I tried one on at davids bridal

    I am just worried that it is too puffed up or Not flat enough  to look right on my head or that you wont be able to see the bling...

    If anyone has any suggestions on any final touches or if you think it is too big or that I should wear it a different way please let me know

    Sorry about the bad cell pic quality my camera is MIA

    Here it is with the Jewel in the Center

    Then it is on my head.... (excuse my lazy no shower or nothing looks LOL)

    Since I am a short haired bride I will be wearing my hair down and poofed up  or if it is long enough curled something like the picture of the blonde

    I really like it, but you're right, it's a little poofy. Would you be able to press it with a warm iron to get it to lay down a bit? Alternately you could tack down the petals with some fabric glue or small basting stitches.

    What if you placed it a little bit lower, closer to your ear?  I think the size is just about right since you are not wearing a veil,but it does stick up a little bit.

    I second the warm iron or basting stitches trick. Or wearing it closer to your ear... I like it though!

    Definately wear it lower. I have one too and when I did my first hair trial, she put it near the crown of my head. Looked down right silly, like I was 12.

    I like this shot, it's a little bit lower than what you have here, but not like at the nape of your neck or anything.
