Style this DIY: Flower Headband

July 16, 2013 Leave a Comment

Style this DIY: Flower Headband | Hands Occupied the diy: fake flower headband / 1. octagon necklace in beige stone / 2. yellow handbag / 3. have a nice daisy dress / 4. braided leather map watch / 5. white oxfords

My DIY style tutorials are some of the most popular things I post. But what about actually incorporating a bold flower headband in a real-life outfit? For those of you who like to show off your DIYs, and maybe have a slightly quirky fashion style like myself, I thought I’d start sharing ideas for how I’d style an outfit with one of my projects. I don’t pretend to be a seasoned fashionista or style expert, and I know my style is probably too matchy matchy and overly practical to make a huge splash in the fashion universe of bloggers, but I wanted to try this series idea on for size anyway.

Whether or not I’m a legit fashionista, here’s a breakdown of why I shared the above: I like having a timepiece of some kind on my person. I enjoy flats without socks, especially (full disclosure) when they have vents to avoid sweaty summer feet. I love that bright yellow purse for how it looks and the fact that it comes with a shoulder strap. The color brings out the yellow in the headband too. And the coupling of the necklace with the dress kind of make me think of a classy lady from another era, which is a favorite look of mine.

Working on a sample for some upcoming videos. It’s an overcast day with intermittent sunshine & I have a scruffy little sidecar. 🐶 Can’t complain!

Peg boards and craft room organization go together Peg boards and craft room organization go together like peanut butter and jelly. So, as you can see, do latch hook tools and screwdriver organizers! 🪛 
.
I think this trick translates to any tool with a thick handle, so leather working tools, punch needles, print making tools, etc. should work! What other tools am I, a needlecrafter, blanking on right now?

Pegboard storage is my favorite for craft supplies Pegboard storage is my favorite for craft supplies, so getting a few hung in my new studio has been a priority. Here’s my first attempt. 🔨 
.
Details: This pegboard panel is for organizing my knitting needles, latch hook tools, sewing thread, etc. It doesn’t need to hold much weight, so I didn’t anchor this into a stud - just used basic drywall anchors. I’ve also got a set of two 2’x4’ panels for another spot in my studio, and those will need a stud/more than 3 drywall anchors. Wish me luck!

June’s big ears can get cold in winter, so I’m improvising a doggie ear warmer/hood for her. What are the odds she tries to shred it immediately when it’s done?
