With ladies’ day fast approaching it’s all eyes on the hats. Try our simple guide to making your own fascinator to match your outfit!
It’s quite simple to make a fascinator to coordinate with your dress. You just need a mix of the following:
Hair comb (match to either your hair colour, or the colours in the fascinator) Needle and thread Clear drying craft glue
* Ribbon * Netting * Lace * Silk flowers * Feathers * Brooch * Earrings * Beads * Gems * Pendants * Sequins
Start by wrapping some ribbon around the head of the comb, through the teeth to create a base. Then add your other pieces by stitching or gluing them in place as securely as possible. Keep checking the placement on your head to get the angles right.
