Tonight I attended a recognition gala for people and businesses who make a positive impact in Bracken County. I wasn't a nominee but I wanted to look chic, so I whipped up this fascinator from newspaper. Next year, maybe a dress...

I got the basic technique from a UTube video, but gave it my own twist.

How creative! I bet you could create corsages from newspaper too. Just in case the dress doesn't quite work LOL!

About 7 years ago my oldest daughter made a wedding bouquet out of old Harry Potter books. It turned out beautifully! :)

Vanessa, that is marvelous! I would have never known it was newspaper if you hadn't mentioned it!

Vanessa your newspaper hat AND you are adorable! Better start saving papers now for your dress next year, it’s going to need lots of layers and packing tape, lol.
