April Flowers Headband or Hair Accessory

April Flowers Headband or Hair Accessory

"This versatile flower accessory can be made into a headband, or hair barrette, or the flowers can be split up and used to decorate hats, bags, purses, belts, scarves and blankets! The possibilities are endless for these crochet flowers! I've included a backing to sew the flowers onto. Just slip any  1 1/2" wide ribbon through the backing's loops for an endless variety of looks and styles! I've used a satin ribbon and a faux crochet lace ribbon in this design, but you can use any kind of ribbon you want. Also included are 3 different finishing options for a headband."
