  • How to braid a headband. Tie Dye Scrappy Headband :D - Step 1
    Step 1

    first off, go searching through any scrap material you have. any old junk will do really. ripped old clothes?
    make sure it's pretty though. :)

    then you need to plait them.
    if you're using scraps of material, you need to cut them into 3 long strips. (long as in like, 20cm remember, it needs to fit around half your head but as you plait it, it'll get smaller)

    you need to plait these quite tightly and tie a knot in both end to secure it.

    then you need to grab some elastic. preferably tough, thick elastic.
    i didnt have any.
    so i destroyed another good top and took out the elastic support lining and tidied it up abit. this has to make up for the other half of your head :)
