Additional Notes:
-If making these with thread, I’d recommend a size 1.5mm to 2.25mm steel hook.
There are 3 different ways of finishing this, either leaving it as a headband that you tie in a bow, with the addition of an elastic strip sewed onto the ends to make a stretchy headband, or with ribbon clips and a clasp if you plan to wear this with an updo, or as a choker. Scroll to the bottom for more detailed explanations of each.
-You can also turn this into a hair accessory by adding a barrette to the back side of the flower holder.
