For this D.I.Y. you will need....
A manila folder
Flowers, Pearls, Any other decorations you desire. I didn't end up using my DAP to make whipped cream but I can do a tutorial using that if you wish.
A thread and Needle
Small bit of fabric
Lastly a hair clip
Start by tracing around your clip on the folder, this will be the base of your clip. Make sure that you have the enough space for the design you have in mind. I did about 1 inch circumference around the clip.
Next you will trace and cut around the base you created in your fabric of choice. I used a pink silk. Make sure you have enough room to wrap the fabric over the bottom as well.
This is what it looked like all glued down. Luckily the center part that is uncovered will have the clip glued over it.
Here is the clip all hot glued down in the center. Now you can flip it over and decide on your layout. I decided I wanted pearls dangling with two pink roses on the clip.
For the pearls you will thread a needle twice, so thread it once, cut, and thread again. That way it is sturdy enough. Now you can thread on the pearls until it has reached your desired length.
Now cut the thread well above when the pearls are, so they don't all just fall off, and hot glue them to the clip like this-
Nice little droop, don't worry about being too neat because your design will cover this. With the pearls on you can now layout your design to get a general idea and glue. I kept mine simple.
Sooooo cute! o(≧o≦)o You can leave it as is or add some little crystals to the petals like I did.
And voila!~
If you try this D.I.Y out, please be sure to show me! Also please ask any questions you may have or let me know if you have any requests! I'm still debating whether to start a separate blog for my cosplaying tutorials. I'm currently working on a cosplay for Lightning from FF 13-2, if anyone's interested in tutorials for this cosplay let me know. ( ^▽^)
See you guys soon! ´ ▽ ` )οΎ‰
