DIY Headband (Reversible)

This was so fun and simple!! I keep wanting to get more into headbands but can never find styles I like. A few years ago I attempted to make my own mod podge headbands and it worked pretty good. But these fabric headbands are so much more comfortable. AND reversible. Reversable? Reversible. Ok.

I found the tutorial HERE and printed off her template of the kids headband pattern. I found out how to make it adult size by migrating to another tutorial for a no-slip headband HERE. (Velcro is the secret!!) Anyway, she says to make the head band 16 inches and to use 6 inches of elastic. It was a perfect fit for my head! It's probably a good idea to measure your head but I don't have the patience for that.

The kids headband is 12 inches long and uses 10 inches of elastic. I thought that was a little weird that the kids headband used more elastic but I tried it on Katy and it is a little loose but she'll grow into it, right?

These headbands were a quick project and I want to make more!! Great way to use up your scraps.
