Gift buying season is in full force as we near Christmas! And with an even shorter holiday season this year who isn't in need of a quick DIY gift idea?
Today I'm showing you how to make simple headbands out of wire-less ribbon!
Supplies:
- ribbon
- elastic
- measuring tape
- scissors
- hot glue gun
Take your ribbon and measure out 17inches. I used my own head as a reference, making sure the ribbon would go behind both of my ears. Cut 5.5 inches of elastic and set aside.
Fold over and glue a small hem on each end of the ribbon to hide the raw edge. With a small dot of glue attach the elastic on the inside of the ribbon on both ends. For wider ribbon use 2 pieces of elastic. Hold the elastic to the ribbon with thumb and forefinger until cooled to ensure a strong bond.
Thats IT!! In about 10 minutes you have some cute gifts to give away! I had such a blast picking out ribbon that reminded me of each of my friend's style.
