Re: Girls Who Made
My advice is pay to have it made !!
I thought it would be an easy DIY but I ended up costing me over 100 dollars and i gave up!

Re: Girls Who Made
I didn't make mine... yet, at least.... but I did end up making my friends who i was a BM for. She had 3 round hat boxes and fabric. It was a little difficult to get the fabric to lay perfectly but we finally got it! I might just take the flowers off of hers and redecorate it with our flowers.... might as well since my and my MOH (whos not even friends with her) ended up making it for her lol

Re: Girls Who Made
I made mine - pics in DIY album - I'm so in love with it haha, and it ended up being cheaper than one of the boxes I was eyeing (which was over $100). I think I spent about $30-$40 in total but that's also because i bought more material than I thought I'd need.
Boxes and ribbon are from Michaels - I got them on sale + additional coupon, cloth from Joanne's, and rhinestone buckles from eBay

Re: Girls Who Made
I used Elmer's spray glue. It's the best one that worked with the fabric, atleast on the boxes I used. You have to spray a bit farther away and not too much and works like a charm :)
