Heading into a stylish accessory

Keep the two strips at the same length so sewing will be easier.

A headband can be great accessory to a dull outfit. Buying one at the store is one thing but making one by hand can be challenging, especially for us. Picking out the fabric that we wanted to use turned out to be the difficult part. We decided that it would be easiest to just cut up an old shirt. It turned out to be a good idea, because the cotton fabric was stretchy and we also got rid of a shirt we didn’t want anymore. 

This craft was very simple to make as long as you measure it to your head before you cut the fabric. Thankfully one of us knows how to sew, otherwise the headband wouldn’t have been made. The making of it took a total of five minutes. Much easier than getting in the car and going to the store. 

Items needed:

Fabric, scissors, thread, string
