It'S going to be another fun and detailed tutorial like you can tell, and today's video i'm going to be showing you how to make this crunchy headband or statement headband, whatever one you want to call it. So i don't know if you guys have been seeing it, but it's kind of a thing now in nigeria and many people would rather wear this as opposed to tying a gilly or the headgear whatever you want to call it. So basically, the beauty about it is that it can be made from any fabric you can made from your ashua b fabric. So that means, if you have an event, and they picked up a particular fabric, you can actually use your fabric to make your own headband and, of course, if you want to mismatch or just make from random fabric like what i have on here, you can definitely Do that, like i said earlier, i made mine out of satin and it's just like a rose goldish setting, and this is a really huge one guys. It'S big right. If you don't want yours to be as big as that, i'm gon na tell you what to do in the video so that you can have it much smaller and a bit more conservative and to be fair. I'M a conservative person, but i know my sister is going to take this off me because she wears headbands and i don't so yeah. That'S fine, all right guys, so we're going to move into the video for today without further ado. Thank you. So much for tuning with me, thank you for engaging with all my videos.

Thank you for being awesome and happy new year once again enjoy the video guys make your scrunchie or statement. Headband you'll need the following items. You need your measuring tape. You'D also need a loop turner. However, i don't have a loop turner, so i tend to use my screwdriver to do that. You'Ll need your fabric scissors, you need your tailor's chuck or fabric marker. I'Ve got a miserable piece of taylor struck here. You need your safety. Pin you'd also need your elastic, and i've got this one inch elastic as you can see it. Just measures about one inch. You'D also need your fabric, and i've got this sateen fabric that i'm going to be using. It'S in a lush rose gold color that i absolutely love and, of course you need some pins as well to make your scrunchy headband go ahead and cut out the main piece of fabric as a rectangle that measures out 40 inches in length and 10 inches in Width, however, if you want something a bit more conservative, you can go for a width of 6 inches as opposed to 10 inches, i'm folding mine to cut it out so that it's more manageable, so i measured at 20 inches while it was unfold so that when I open it up. It will give me 40 inches in length and 10 inches in width after cutting out the main piece of fabric, which is the rectangular fabric. You'Ll need to cut out another rectangular piece and the rectangular piece that you're cutting out now will be used for the elastic casing. This must measure 4 inches in width and 15 inches in length, so go ahead and cut out the elastic casing so that it measures 4 inches wide and 15 inches long next go ahead and cut out a third piece of fabric which will serve as the lining The lining should measure three inches in width and 15 inches in length, so you'll be cutting out yet another rectangle. That is three inches by 15 inches by now, you should have three rectangles cut out the first one, which is the main piece, will measure 10 inches by 40 inches. The second one, which is the elastic casing, will measure four inches by 15 inches and then the third piece, which is the lining piece, will measure three inches by 15 inches after cutting out all the pieces go ahead and fold the main piece and elastic casing piece Into two, as shown and then go ahead and sew along the edges, all the way to the bottom you'll be sewing on half an inch sewing allowance after sewing the elastic casing piece and the main piece. This is what it looks like. The next thing to do is to turn them right side out so you'll be using your lip turner for this and i'm starting with the elastic casing. You basically just want to turn it inside out, so that you have the right side out. You want to repeat the same thing for the main piece. However, it's a lot bigger, so i didn't have to use a loop tenon. I just you know flipped it inside out with my hand. Next, we'll need to cut up some elastic so that we can feed the elastic into the elastic casing, so go ahead and cut out your elastic so that your elastic is about seven inches in length. So, as you can see, i measured out my elastic making sure it's not stretched out and measured out seven inches and cut it up. The next thing is to attach the elastic to the safety, pin then feed the elastic into the elastic casing. As shown, you want to make sure that your elastic does not disappear into the casing, so you basically want to make sure to sew the ends together. As shown, you want to sew the elastic to the fabric at the end, just like this. After sewing, the elastic to one end go ahead and push it until the elastic comes out, on the other end, remove the safety pin, and then you also want to sew it at the other end, so that you can keep the elastic into the casing afterwards. You should have the casing. Looking like this, with the safety pin, insert or feed the lining into the maid fabric, you want to make sure to sew the end of the main fabric and the end of the lining together, so that the lining does not disappear into the main fabric. So go ahead and sew the ends like this and then continue feeding the lining into the main fabric until it comes out on the other end when it comes out at the other end, you want to make sure to sew the lining to the main fabric so That it doesn't disappear inside as well after passing the lining piece into the main fabric and sewing it at the ends. You have that scrunched up effect and it looks really nice in my opinion. So the next thing to do is to attach the elastic band to the main fabric, and what you want to do is you want to match the right size together and then pin the elastic band to the center of the main fabric wrap the left corner over It and then overlap with the right corner, as shown you want to hold it in place with a pin, and then you want to sew it over. Just like that. So i'm going to go ahead and hold it in place with the pin and then show you again at the other side. Please pay attention to this part. It is a bit tricky step. One pin the band to the center step two wrap one side over just like that step: three wrap the other side over step, four hold all in place with a pin step; five hold it together with a stitch. After sewing the elastic band in place with the main fabric, this is what it looks like, so i went ahead to trim it because the fabric was fraying a little and then i went ahead to turn it over to the right side. When you do that, you'll notice that the joining disappears into the scrunchie - and it just looks really neat and really nicely done so guys - this is what it looks like and your statement, headband or your statement, scrunchy or scrunchy headband, is now ready to be used.
