Kristen, over at the uber-cool Domestifluff blog, posted a tutorial for a gorgeous ruffly felt garland. Wouldn’t this be a lovely addition to wedding decor? Tutorial here.

Wouldn’t this be an awesome ring pillow with the initials of you and your beloved? It’d also be a nifty “thank you” gift for your maids. JCaroline has generously offered a tutorial for making this gorgeous monogrammed felt pillow. [found via Craft Magazine]
I love, love, love beaded flowers. They take a bit of patience to master but they’re worth it (if you like beaded projects). BeadJewelryMaking has a nice tutorial for creating beaded roses. Wouldn’t these be lovely as boutonnieres? You could also create a whole bridal bouquet from them or sneak in a few into a fresh flower bouquet for added sparkle. Seeds beads come in hundreds of colors so you’ll be able to make a pretty little flower to match your theme.

A good hair accessory is hard to find – especially one that’s hip and inexpensive. Thanks to the fabulous Corvus tristis blog, a very nice tutorial for creating fascinators has been shared.
For the uninitiated, fascinators are large-ish combs or barrettes that are worn to formal events. They’re not quite hats or headbands and are bigger than more hair clips.
Fascinators are very high on the trend list this year and you’ll see these at higher-end salons for $75 – $200+. You can make this for under $20, easy. Find feathers at craft stores and online. (eBay is a great source as are millinery supply shops.)
Go traditional with white feathers or outrageous with shocking pink. Tres chic, my darlings.
