Kind of back to the drawing board...help.

beautifulmama28

I had settled on a black flower with birdcage blusher veil for my headpiece.

Being the crafty do it yourself woman I am, I bought the flower part here locally and was going to order the veil (much cheaper this way)

Problem is...,my hair is so dark you can barely see the flower LOL

So now I'm second guessing the decision.

I kind of feel like...if you can't see it, whats the point lol kwim?

I agree!

Agreed.  This isn't a funeral.

She says the flower is black, not the veil.

This is what I got too. I have dark hair, and I feel the same way about hair accessories. If it were me, I would personally go with white or a color.

Thanks and ok

Yeah I know its not for everyone...honestly I had not settled on a black veil versus an ivory one (even though initially i had chosen the black)...I'm kind of going for that pinup girl look and either one fits this

but in the end i decided I didn't want too because i wanted a bit more of a bridal look...so i want edgy, but not shocking LOL
