Hi everyone - this is what I have left over after i reconned deconstruct and reconstruct all these sweatshirts. I have so many bands and I make little projects out of them, and this really helps kind of defray the cost of some of my sweatshirts. By being able to sell some accessories and make these little headbands to different styles, this is the narrow one, and then I make a little bit wider one, I'm kind of showing you the packaging. Here too, I like to keep them in these little packages. When I take them to craft, shows kind of keeps the dust out of them, it seems like people always come in with ice cream cones too, so this just helps keep them clean. I have a size chart on the back of them. I do four different sizes of this band, the little size on the front of it and in the wider one I have two different sizes of the wider band and I'll show you all the sizes that I caught on that this one is the wider one. I do to that adult is cut at 19 inches and the youth at 17 inches surging across that shorter side first and then folding it on the natural fold. I like to add a little bit of a contrasting fabric to this. To this now I just fold it underneath there making it a little bit tight and I'll. Take this to my regular sewing machine and just stitch that across trimming this up now. What'S so nice is that this is an it. So I'm able to just turn this. So that the raw bra side or the wrong side is in covering an oxime, it just makes it real neat some of them. I leave just like this and then some of them I go ahead and I decorate them with a little yo-yo I'll link. My video on how I make my yo-yos up on top, so you can take a look at that, but I kind of picking out which ones I want here just kind of looking and seeing and I deciding I think yeah. This is the one I decided on, and I just glue this on just aleene's tacky glue and here's a couple more samples of it to these. Headbands are so nice because there they state, they're, very stable. They don't stretch out nor do they slip. So I have customers coming back to get these because they're, just such a nice weight onto the narrow or one. Now I'm cutting these in half right along that natural fold, seam I'm cutting the band's in four different and make four different sizes. The infant is a 13 inch, the toddler at 15 inch, the youth at 17 and the adult had 18 inches surging across the narrow end there and then folding and I'll surge this longer scene. This is a little template or little pattern. I made it measures about four inches long by tuna. Fourth inches wide and I cut these on the fold. I use two different colored prints and then just stitched using a quarter, inch seam allowance and you look leaving a little gap there. So I can turn it and a clip in the corner, so there's not so much bulk. When I turn it, I'm just getting my fingers in there getting the right sides out in using my little pokey tool. Pressing human is a good press and also folding down those those edges on that opening. This will go to my sewing machine now and I like to zigzag all the way around this and that'll close up that opening. I love using just kind of funky colored threads here, just using a odds and ends. I like this scrappy look and this just kind of gives. Is it just kind of a fun whimsical? Look to these little ties and it's as simple as just tying it on? I do give it a little twist here so that both sides of the fabric show and then pulling it tight, and there you go. That'S it. I also like making these little clips basically the same way with the st. the tie, and I tie those little those little the ties right underneath that clip in the same Slipknot and kind of use the same kind of packaging. That'S it. I hope you enjoyed this fun. Little project have a great day, bye,

Brenda Severns: How fun!!! 35 years ago I made fabric bows!!! These are beautiful Julia!

Bernina Lover: Love this, you gave me a good idea. I will use decorative thread, even verigated on my serger, I think it will just be even one step up on embelishment. You go girl!

Dinahsoar: I love these. They are really cute, but also artsy. I had a knit turtleneck that wasn't good enough to donate. I cut the neck into wide strips and it naturally folded in half; made great headbands used 'as is'. (And they fit my big head (purchased ones are always too tight.) But yours are so cute with the stitching and the decorative elements.
