If your like me then you probably have 1000 cute headbands taking over your vanity and bathroom cupboards! Heres a great way to make more room declutter your space. This is a How-To for making interchangable headband acessories! Enjoy <3
First gather your supplies ^_^ You will need- *3 Small Bits of Colored Felt *1 Tiny Bit of Black Felt *1 Button or Other Embellishment *1 Elastic Hairband *1 Plastic Headband (one with the little teeth works best) *Scissors, Hot Glue or Craft Glue
*To make your felt flower just cut out three different sized circles from the felt. *Fold each circle in half 3 times, and cut a curve off the top. This will give you a scalloped edge like in the picture. *Stack and glue your flower layers and top it off with a buttone or other cute embellishment.
*Next take your elastic hairband and cut it so its one long piece. Wrap it around your plastic headband to get a general idea of how long of a piece you will need to cut off. *My headband is pretty narrow, so I only cut off about 1 inch. *From your black felt cut a piece that is about 1 inch long, but as wide as your headband is.
*Now what you want to do is glue one end of the elastic to the middle of the longest side of your black felt. *Let it dry all the way. *The stretch your elastic to wrap around to the opposite side and glue it there.
*Glue your black felt/elastic bit to the back of your flower. With the previously glued ends on the back.
*You can now slip the elastic band around your head band and voila! Interchangeable Accessories!
*If you want to alter a hairclip, brooch or other headband embellishment to be interchangable, just follow steps 3-5. Have Fun & Enjoy
