I took my first stab at making a birdcage veil (I used the instructions here). Since it was just my first shot, I used super cheap-o tulle, but I have nicer stuff to use once I'm comfortable with how I'm going to make it. And the headband/flower is actually a headband from Burlington Coat Factory that I got for $2!!! I wouldn't wear it for the actual wedding, but I would create my own (that one is super small {ouch} and the pearls are super cheap looking).
So, what do you all think? Should I go for it and make a nice one, or are birdcage veils not my thing? (PS - those are the earrings I'll be wearing, they were my Gram's and I love them!)
My life is CRAZY...I'm working full time, planning a wedding, trying to become the healthiest me I can be, mother to 3 lovely dogs and 2 adorable cats, the list goes on and on. It is definitely hectic, and can be super stressful at times, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
