DIY Floral Headband

As Megan's early birthday gift, I made her a floral headband yesterday. She wanted one with spikes, but since I could not obtain them in the time given, I left them out. Here's how it turned out:


Materials:

  • Plain / unribboned headband
  • Ribbon or whatever material you wish to wrap around the headband. In here, I used a cream crocheted fabric
  • Small artificial flowers -- just buy a bouquet of them and then pluck them off.
  • Glue gun
  • Thin ribbon to use as a tying thing (facultative <-- new vocab word meaning optional)
  • Scissors
The process was pretty straightforward:
  1. Glue on one end of the ribbon/ fabric you want your headband to be wrapped in.
  2. Glue on the flowers. You can have them more sparse (like mine) or more bountiful.
  3. Glue on the thin ribbon to the inside of the headband. Make sure to leave enough at the ends to be able to comfortably tie around your head.
My eyebrows in the picture on the right look almost
as sparse as the number on flowers on the headband..



Going to Peru in 2 days; probably won't be blogging much here. See ya'll later!
