    Hi all! I was going to try to make a hair fascinator, but I found one at Ardene (I don't think it's in the US, but it's an accessory store like Claire's) for only $2!!  My original goal was to find one with some more bling to it, like with rhinestones and/or pearls.  I've attached a picture of my dress (has some crystal detail on the straps), but I will also be wearing a pearl necklace and pearl earrings.  What would you recommend?  And if you think I need to add stuff, how would you do it - sew on or glue?  Thanks!!

    I think it would look really pretty with some white feathers if you're into that sort of thing!  Definitely hot glue is the way to go!!

    I like the looks of feathers too, but this flower is quite large, over 4" in diameter, so I think adding feathers might make it too big!

    i think it would look great if you added some rhinestones and/or pearls. It's too bad it's already 4 inches in diameter otherwise feathers would also look fantastic. But I think adding a little something would look great. Also, hot glue guns are the best!

    I think both pearls & crystals would look good and would unify the pearls you will be wearing and the crystals on the dress. As for how to do it, I have no idea but survey seems to say glue gun :)
