DIY Headband

Ready to make a fun and easy headband?

You will need:
One piece of 32 x 2 1/4 inch fabric.
One piece of 19 1/2 x 1 1/4 inch fabric.
Small felt circles.


You may want to trim the ends of your strips of fabric. This will make them a little narrow to make it easier to tie but you don't have to. I trimmed mine down to 1 inch on the ends.
It's ok if it frays or is uneven as that is part of the look.

Sew around the edge of the large strip.


Center the small strip on the large strip of fabric and pin.

Sew around the edges.


Your basic headband is complete and should look like this.

This is where you can be a little more creative. You can add any type of embellishment on the headband here. We chose to make little ruffles.

To make the ruffles take one felt circle and fold it in half.


And fold that in half again.


I like to put a few stitches in the bottom of the folded circle to help secure it, otherwise you can sew it directly on to your headband.

Sew as many folded circles on your headband as desired.
