Step 2: glue felt and rhinestones

1st, glue the felt on the headband in place. You can place it in the middle or inclined left or right as long as you feel it beautiful;
2nd, glue a line of rhinestone beads at each side of the headband. Make sure arrange all rhinestones next to each other without any gap.

Done!

I added a line of rhinestones to make this shell button headband more sparkling. The rhinestones are actually sea green, while they seem like cyan in the picture because of chromatic aberration. If you think cyan is good for you, congratulations! You find another choice! What a beautiful mistake!
