DIY Flower Cluster Headpiece

Oh did I get the DIY accessory bug after I made that last minute headpiece for the Fourth of July!  I just HAD to make a flower cluster headpiece.   I’ve had to wear headbands for several months now because I am growing out my hair.  Did you know I had a shaved head?  Yep… that picture over there to your right?  The sides of my head are shaved.  Don’t believe me?  Here’s proof:

Oooops! It looks like my daughter didn’t like that I shaved my head in that last picture! When I had that haircut, my husband had to shave my head for me every two weeks…that’s love! I had it that way for 425 days before I decided that I didn’t want to have a shaved head once I reached 40 years old and I knew it would take a while to grow back! So now that I have to wear headpieces all the time to cover up the weird growth on the side of my head I have decided to do this tutorial.

Materials:

  • Felt
  • Hot glue and glue gun
  • Scissors
  • Flower craft embellishments
  • Tulle
  • Hair clip

Instructions:

There is no exact science to this due to personal style, but I simply arranged the embellishments until I liked the way it looked.

Hot glue your arrangement onto the felt.

Cut the excess felt off around the back of your headpiece with scissors.

I clipped it to a headband in this photo. I like using hair clips and headbands separately so that I can interchange the style depending on my outfit. Oh! And there is an added bonus! This giant headpiece hides my gray hair perfectly!

  1. No You Did Not! I didn’t know that and I certainly haven’t noticed any weird growth when I’ve seen you lol Love this headpiece, it looks GREAT on you!

  2. I see no gray hair- but maybe that’s because of the headband. 😉 I had that same haircut all through high school (albeit a mite bit spikier). I love what you were able to do with it, and the headband is a really clever idea for styling the “growing out” bits.
