Make a Hair Statement – Part I

Who doesn't love chunky flowers in their hair? I know I do. For my wedding day, I had two big bright yellow roses in my tusseled, bun-like hairstyle. Don't they look real? Everyone thought so. Well, they aren't.

I wanted real flowers in my hair, but I didn't want to them to fall out, wilt or die by the end of the night. For my solution, I bought these two artificial-looking roses. They looked and felt pretty real too. I actually bought them in white and dyed them yellow myself. I wouldn't recommend you doing this yourself unless you know what you are doing. The glue that holds the petals together comes apart in the hot, boiling water. I had to do a little touch up work with the handy hot glue gun. ;)

If interested in these fantastic florals, they are on Etsy.com and are being sold by Mikiye Creations. I highly recommend her product! The flowers are pretty, darn realistic.
