A butterfly trio headdress

Recently I have created a number of butterflies in silk and lace; in fact, too many. To justify it I can say that I was just fulfilling a constant stream of orders for these beautiful creatures. And here is the last piece: a butterfly trio headdress in turquoise and mint hues

Turquoise butterfly headband

This butterfly headband will perfectly complement a summer outfit in similar hues. It is ideal for a turquoise-themed wedding too, either to be worn by a bride or bridesmaids.
I used satin, organza, pongee (all pure silk) and floral lace which I painted by hand as well as beads and seed beads in complementing colours. The thin  metallic headband is wrapped with a strip of pure hand painted silk.

This bright piece of headwear is available from my Etsy shop.

But it is not my first triple butterfly headband. Previously I made a similar headdress in shades of purple

and a white lace butterfly wedding headband

If you are willing to try and make a similar butterfly headband yourself you might want to purchase my .pdf tutorial on a lace butterfly made WITHOUT any special tools which is available from my Etsy shop. With more than 50 pictures explaining in detail the whole process of creating your own designer accessory, this 47 page .pdf ebookwill teach you how to create a delicate lace butterfly to be used in accessories, as wedding decorations, in millinery and much more. I have included the pattern too.

Fascinator is something we wear on our head but it is not exactly a hat. However, fascinators can have as much visual impact as hats. Chosen well they complete your look and make the wearer feel more confident.

Fascinator is a perfect choice for little princesses and young ladies when they need to dress up for a wedding or any other special occasion which requires an impressive hairpiece to match an outfit and complete the look.

 I create fasciantors using a wide range of materials from sinamay to silks, velvets etc. and decorate them with bead embroidery, wonderful feathers, veils, crin, lace etc.

Such choice of textures and colours allows me to create pieces which perfectly match an outfit and suit an occasion (or a photoshoot maybe?). The fascinators can be attached to a headband, a hair comb, a hair clip,  a hat elastic depending on the design and your preferences.
