About
Make this headband for a quick and easy bespoke addition to your wardrobe.
I decided to make use of all the accumulated notions hanging around in my sewing box for this quick and easy headband DIY. I’m all about being thrifty lately, and I also love to have something in my wardrobe that absolutely no one else will have.
Make this headband and you’ll have people commenting and asking where you got it, and you’ll just have to say, “I made it myself!”

Step 1Step 1: Take your mesh and fold it into two figure eights. The loops on the first 8 will be small, the loops on the second larger. Pinch the returns in your fingers and make sure the loops are even.
-
Step 2Step 2: Take your brad and insert it through all layers of the mesh, then fold back the edges of the brad to secure the mesh. Trim off any excess.

Step 3Step 3: Measure the elastic around your head, cut, and hand sew the ends neatly together with the black thread and needle.

Step 4
Step 4: Take the needle and thread and attach the figure eights to the elastic, making sure that the join of the elastic is at the bottom and will be hidden when you put it on your head. Sew small stitches underneath the first layer of the mesh and you won’t be able to see the stitches in the finished product.
I like to wear this headband when I’m in a vintage mood, or when I’ve ended up in all black and want to add a bit of whimsy to my look.
