Autumn is drawing near, which means we can prepare ourselves for rain
clouds and low temperatures. On the bright side, though, it also means
that we can retreat into the comfort of our own homes, make ourselves a
nice cup of tea, and get creative! Autumn calls for different colours
than summer, and the bright shades can be stored away, making room for
the richer, deeper colours such as burgundy red and royal blue, which
may be combined with softer colours such as grey, brown, and various
pastel shades.
In this tutorial I will show you how to make these headbands with
roses. Many different colour-combinations are possible, that is why I
made three different examples.
What do you need
How do you proceed
Step 1 First, choose a nice colour-pallet and place the
roses alongside of the headband in the order you want to glue them on.
This way you can see how the headband will look once it is finished.
Once you are happy with the colour-combination and the space between the
roses you can proceed with the next step.
Step 2 Now you can glue the roses onto the headband. Start
with the rose you want to put in the middle. Add a drop of glue onto the
back of the rose and on the headband. Do not be stingy with the glue;
you want to make sure the roses stick to the headband.
Wait until the glue has dried a little and then press the rose onto
the headband. Press down and hold, then continue with the next rose. I
began by gluing on the three roses in the middle, then I added three on
the one side and three on the other side. Make sure you let the glue dry
in between and pay attention; the roses might have a tendency slip a
bit, in which case you have to push them back into their original
position.
In addition, you should beware that you do not place the roses
too close to one another. When you bend the headband to place it on your
head, the roses come closer to each other, which could cause them to
fall off. Hence, make sure there is enough space between the roses when
you bend the headband.
Step 3 Allow the headband to dry. After that, it is ready to be worn.
