So I saw a headband like this on Etsy and was like well I can make something similar for way less the $23 so I did. My sister described it as "gross cute" because of the brain drips. Well I said of course they're cute, they are sparkly brain drips! This would be good for a zombie costume for Halloween or a zombie walk.

Sorry I don't have pictures of the process =/

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Red (Glitter) Fabric Paint
  • Black Fabric Paint
  • Black Stiff Felt
  • Pink Felt
  • Red Felt
  • 1 Hair Clip

Steps (6 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    You want to cut out a general brain blob shape with the black felt, add little drippy parts to. this is like the hard backing, support for the clip.

  2. 2

    With the red felt cut out a shape similar but smaller than the black shape minus the drips and glue this down.

  3. 3

    Do the same with your pink felt but make this one a little more bumpy like not so perfect looking but like your missing a chunk o' scalp and then glue this down

  4. 4

    Take your black paint and make the squiggly brain designs of your brain. There is no pattern just don't make it too crowded.

  5. 5

    Take your red paint (mine just happened to be glittery) and paint your brain drips, like your head is leaking blood and goo, I painted the exposed red felt to give it like a shine and so it matched the glitter drips.

  6. 6

    Once dry take a large bobby pin and glue just the end down to the back of the clip. Take a small piece of felt and make a little patch to anchor your clip down. then you are done!
