I'm not much for big, colorful flowers on my head, so here's what I've come up with. I just started out with some regular fabric flowers that I had in my stash. The color doesn't matter cause they'll be doused with paint!

I *ADORE* this paint that my husband had purchased for car parts. It is a black/silver metallic. I'll be buying lots more of this stuff very soon!

So, I just sprayed each individual flower. It took a couple of coats and me holding back the petals and leaves (disposable gloves would be good at this point to protect your hands and nails) and really coating the flowers.

Of course I needed some jingle, so I used E6000 glue to attach some little silver bells in the middle of the flowers.

Then my flowers were E6000ened onto a headband. It took lots of propping and positioning and needs to really dry at least 24-48 hours.

And here they are in action for one of my gothic dances.
