With how chilly it’s been here lately, it’s hard to believe that just a couple of weeks ago I was going sleeveless, but here’s what I wore to work on my 30th birthday. I’ve been enjoying accessorizing my bump with graphic tees and belts, but on this day I decided it needed a nice big flower!
Top: Banana Republic
Jeans: Gap
Shoes: Nicole
Flower: DIY
Pregnancy: 25 weeks
I’ve always loved oversized flower pins but never wanted to spend the money on them–so I decided to make one myself. I purchased the flower from a craft store and chopped off the stem. Then I stitched a flat pin onto a little circle of canvas. Lastly, I glued and (roughly) stitched the canvas to the flower:

And for less than $3 I had a flower pin of my own!
Not sure which side to wear it on? Here’s a tip–put it on the side that won’t be in the way of your seatbelt when you buckle it to prevent smushing your pretty new accessory!
So adorable!! I’m going to make one now. =)
This is so cute!!!
Adorable! It accents your bump very nicely.
Super cute! Love the top, as well.
this is such an awesome idea. the little details make all the difference…
Super cute DIY flower pin!! I will so be sporting one of these in the near future!

Love the DIY flower pin – I am totally scalping the idea D. Don’t fret – you will get the credit all over the metro-Atlanta area
People everywhere will know you are an accessosory genius!

I just came across your blog and I LOVE IT! I aspire to be trendy pregnant like you! The flower is perfect! What is it attached to? A belt? A ribbon?
Thanks so much Jeanette! The flower pin is attached to a piece of ribbon that I tied around my waist.
