content: A green velveteen headband with appliqued yo-yo flowers. The exterior of the headband is made of six velveteen yo-yo flowers resembling lily pads. Buckram is placed inside of the flowers for support. The flowers are stitched to the headband, which is covered in the same green velveteen fabric. Metal or plastic is placed inside of the headband to keep its shape. Small pieces of green nylon net are seen along the interior of the headband suggesting a veil was previously attached.
