I love headbands! Such a cute and functional accessory. But, let me tell you, it is tough to find a good one. Trust me, I’ve done the legwork. They are either so tight you look bald, so loose that whats the point, and lets not forget the ones that give you a headache within the hour.
You know the old saying, If you can’t find it, write it? Well I took this phrase to heart and decided that I would have to design the perfect headband. Lets be real, I watched a few YouTube tutorials!
However, after a few flops, I really did come up with the perfect prototype.
This is literally so simple! All you need is a t-shirt and some scissors. But, before you scroll down to the video – here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing a t-shirt:
- Quality Fabric. Soft, substantial and stretchy is what you want. You might have an awesome t-shirt that has a stain, or one that doesn’t fit quite right. I would also suggest checking out Goodwill. You could get a few different options for a couple bucks!
- Visual Interest. A bright bold color or funky pattern will make your headband look intentional rather than recycled.
Okay are you ready? Do you have your t-shirt? Lets Go!
