A cute floral headband

This was inspired by the headband (on the girl in the denim jacket above) from Urban Outfitters. It's a little pricey so I picked up some fake flowers for $4 and used what I had around to create this fun headband that I love! ****PS an easier way to do this would be to hot glue fake flowers to a plastic headband. It looks just as good and holds together just as well!*****

You Will Need (3 things)

  • Sewing Machine
  • Elastic
  • Felt

Steps (8 steps, 150 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut leaves and flowers off bouquet as close as possible.

  2. 2

    Cut tiny strips of a matching colored felt- enough for one for each flower.

  3. 3

    Measure small elastic around your head and sew together securely making sure there is not twist. Re-check that it still fits and make adjustments if necessary.

  4. 4

    Sew strips of felt on to headband close together (almost overlapping).

  5. 5

    Hand sew flowers on to felt and headband with matching thread. It gets a little tedious. Sew through petals and plastic on to felt and headband.

  6. 6

    Once all flowers are on, snip excess felt off while watching out not to cut through stitches.

  7. 7

    You can sew the leaves on or just slide them/bobby pin them under the headband like I did. (if you want the leaves)

  8. 8

    Voila! You're done!
