I bought some paper mache' roses, ribbon, velvet hydrangeas, and assembled them on some plastic headbands. Easy craft, and lots of fun :). It's nice to wear a unique accessory once and a while :). Great gift idea too! The all pink one just screams me- fav colors: pink and green, and fav flowers: pink roses :). I made the white one for a friend as a sort of Valentine gift, hence the colors. The background is my favorite chair- an heirloom from my grandparents.


"The Last Rose of Summer":

'Tis the last rose of summer left blooming alone
All her lovely companions are faded and gone
No flower of her kindred, no rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes and give sigh for sigh

I'll not leave thee, thou lone one, to pine on the stem
Since the lovely are sleeping, go sleep thou with them
Thus kindly I scatter thy leaves o'er the bed
Where thy mates of the garden lie scentless and dead

So soon may I follow when friendships decay
And from love's shining circle the gems drop away
When true hearts lie withered and fond ones are flown
Oh who would inhabit this bleak world alone?
This bleak world alone
