How to make a glowing flower headband

How to make a glowing flower headband
My mom used to do a lot of floral arrangement stuff and she had these cool LED powered fiber-optic lights that were for corsages and stuff.  I found them and I was inspired to make this headband.  At first glance, it just looks like a white satin headband with fake blue hydrangeas, but turn off the lights and it turns into something magical!

For this project you will need:

-headband
-glue gun and glue
-MagicLite LED powered fiber-optic light.  You can also make this pretty easily, I just happened to have one and saved some time.
-Floral tape that matches your headband
-Fake flowers.  I used hydrangeas because it was easier to hide the base of the light with them.
