Wedding Blog
There are 2 things I knew when I started this wedding process. I wanted to wear a birdcage veil, and I wanted to wear some type of headpiece in my hair. I have seen SOOOO many amazing ones online, and even wrote about them here. This is another example of something I really wanted to do and was willing to pay for, but got roped into doing it DIY style. And this is how the finished product turned out:
I decided to go with feathers, white lace, and a slate blue/green material (that matches the trim on my dress).

I will post instructions in a later post, but I just had to share! The total cost of this project was less than $5. Yay!
Are you planning to wear a headpiece? Would you consider DIY?

RAWR- I LOVE the feathers! What kind are they? Where did you get them???
Gotta love the feathers!!!!!! I hadn’t even thought about making my own headpiece…until now, that is! 
Seriously impressed Ms. AC. This is by far one of my favorites I’ve seen anywhere.
WOW that’s really cute! that was my main thing while I was planning my wedding. I haven’t made my birdcage but I did make feather pieces for my bmaids. I haven’t finished all of them, but this gives me an idea for others. Can’t wait to see your post on how to make those. SUPER cute 
that’s really cute miss ac! you did a great job.
i want a flower pin to wear once i’m done with the veil but i haven’t decided if i want to make one or buy one. i’ll have to keep practicing!
So pretty! Can’t wait for the instructions to see if I can really do it myself hehe
i love how your wedding style is SOOO strong. i can see it in every thing you do. awesome!
That looks great! I am going back & forth between a headband, nothing or some sort of fascinator. You did an amazing job
Where did you buy that blue-green fabric? I love it! Gorgeous hair flower!!!
Feathers?!?! YES! Mine was so simple with tulle, some basic ivory ribbon, and ivory buttons - but I wish I had the courage to DIY something like yours. It has so much personality!
That looks great! good call on going DIY, it matches perfectly!
