Autumn Wedding Flowers For Your Hair
If you are planning an autumn wedding, there are some very lovely choices for wedding flowers for your hair.
Autumn colors can be bright and vivid with yellow, orange, and red or then can be soft and subtle with shades of burgundy, deep purple, olive green, and taupe.
Since fabric and feathers can be dyed any color, you can perfectly match any fabric color and create any style of flowers for your hair. Look to nature for inspiration when designing flower pieces.
Tiny acorns (a symbol of fertility) can be fashioned from polymer clay or fabric and included in the flower design.
Mini crystal buckles can be threaded onto a ribbon and added to the flower. Tiny charms with verses or poems add a meaningful touch. They can be worn as jewelry after the ceremony.
Fabric flowers are an art in themselves. There are inexpensive pieces available at craft stores, but the most beautiful ones are handmade using the finest fabrics. The price will usually reflect the quality, but the craft is an easy one if you would like to make your own.
Rose petals are used to make a pattern for the fabric flowers by carefully removing the petals and tracing them onto the fabric. The beauty of a fabric flower is that is can either look like a fresh flower or it can be a combination of petals any size you would like.
A tea light is an invaluable tool to singe the edges of the fabric. This technique will curl the edges of the fabric, seal it from fraying, and "cup" it into a petal shape. Be careful not to hold it too close and scorch or burn the fabric. With a little practice on a scrap piece, you will be able to create a perfect petal.
