1. To begin with, you’ll need a
little bit of felt, a simple headband, about two yards (this may vary,
depending on the size of your fascinator) of fairly wide lace, and some hot
glue or textile glue. 
2. Cut a circle from the felt. Mine
is about two to three inches in diameter. Keep in mind that, due to the width
of the lace, the finished product will be a few inches larger than the felt
circle.
3. Pin the inner edge of the lace
to the outer edge of the felt circle. It's okay if the lace warps from being pinned to a round surface; this gives it a more realistic petal-like shape.
4. Remove the pins one by one,
replacing each with a dab of glue. Allow the glue to dry.
5. Repeat this process a little bit
at a time, gluing the lace in a tight spiral pattern. As you near the center,
you may want to fold the lace in half to give a more rounded effect. Continue
until you have made a rose shape.
6. Glue the fascinator to the
headband. Cut another circle of felt, and then glue it on so that the headband
is sandwiched between the two felt layers. 
7. Wait for the glue to dry, and
it’s done.
