diy monday: holiday headbands.

I've got not one, but four DIY projects today! I whipped up some headbands over the weekend that are perfect for the upcoming holidays, and I'm excited to share them with you. The best part? I spent a grand total of $0.00 on these, using materials that I already had.

Here's the supplies you'll need:

-Hot Glue Gun

-Any materials you have for decorating your headband (I used felt, fabric scraps, yarn, ric rac and buttons)

-Headbands (I like to use the thin little girl's headbands, because they don't dig into my head as much)

First up: The Gift Bow...

Inspired by this gorgeous gift bow headband from Ban.do, I set out to make a gift bow headband of my own. First, I covered my headband by wrapping a long strip of fabric around the headband and affixing it with hot glue. Following this tutorial (found via this post), I then created a felt bow and attached it with hot glue to my headband. Super. Easy.

Next up: The Schoolgirl Bow...

Okay, this one was even easier than the first. I wrapped yarn around my headband, again affixing it with hot glue. Then I created a bow, following this tutorial, and glued it to the headband. Super. Duper. Easy.

Third: The Baby Flower...

Now for the elastic headbands. For this little guy, I made a fabric flower in this style, added a button with hot glue, and attached it to the elastic (with hot glue, of course). OhMyGoodnessCouldThisGetAnyEasier?

And finally: The Sequin Ditty...

I've had this piece of gold sequin ric rac sitting in my craft box for months now, and I decided it was time to put it to good use! Inspired by this post, I cut piece of elastic and stitched it to the ric rac. I of course followed up with a little hot glue to make sure it was secure. And viola! 4 headbands complete.

And because I know you're dying to see blurry self-taken pics of me wearing each one, I've included them below...

Fun, right? I'll definitely be wearing these festive little guys during the holidays!

Which is your favorite?
