How to Make a Wedding Veil
By Bobette Kyle-Wagner | March 2, 2008
For the experienced seamstress, making a wedding veil isn’t really difficult and it is certainly far less expensive than buying one at the local bridal store. You will want plenty of time to design your perfect veil and find the right book or pattern to help you do so, then more time for experimentation and careful construction. The specifics will vary depending on the type of veil, how elaborate it is, and whether you decorate a headpiece or purchase one ready-made, but in general you will follow similar steps when making a veil:
- Decide veil specifics.
- Design it.
- Determine tulle and other materials.
- Shop.
- Lay out and cut fabric.
- Sew on edging or finish edge.
- Add embellishments.
- Gather.
- Add headpiece, comb, or loops.
