After buying yards and yards of lace at the fabric warehouse I found in Tucson, I started experimenting while I was making Dupioni Snoods and Convertible Headcovering/Headbands. I'm really excited with the results! I stumbled across a way to make a headband that looks awesome two ways and then converts into a fuller covering that offers more complete coverage (and a different look). I just had to post some of the pictures that I had Paul snap yesterday. All three of these are dupioni silk with lace trim. I did add a plain black dupioni cover/headband and a plain charcoal grey dupioni cover/headband yesterday too! And there were five more cotton covers from the day before in a variety of colors!
Here's the latest, showing off all three options for my new design:
That's funny, I had some lace headbands in mind for my shop too. We must be laceaholics :). Your headbands look great!
