Ruffly Headband

Let me first start out by saying thanks to everyone,

who is a follower to Get Craftin,

and thanks to all you sweet ladies for your wonderful comments.

Today has been raining all day.

I love the rain, and i think it's the best time to create.

So since I heart headbands!

I decided to make a new one to add to my collection.

I think they always complete an outfit.

The one i decided to make today i saw on someone wearing it at church yesterday.

As i starred at it in aw, i knew i could replicate it.

That's how i roll!

Here's all you'll need to make a ruffly headband:

• headband
• a light weight fabric
• hot glue gun
• and felt

I used the fabric from a kid's old skirt.

I just loved the pattern, and i new the light weight fabric would work great.

I then cut the strips out.

Then cut out a rectangle shape out of your felt.

Make your design with the hot glue gun, and go setting your fabric in place. Be careful not to burn yourself. I used my fingers to press them in place, but I'm pretty used to the heat. If it burns your fingers use an object like a pen, or your scissors to set them in the right place.

One of the techniques i used to make the rose looking one is i would wrap the strips of fabric around my pointer finger. I would carefully pull it out, usually it's too tall so i just cut it right in the middle. Then I'd have two little roses.

When your done with your design. Trim all around your felt.

Drop a line of hot glue straight down you felt pad and set your headband right on it.

If your like me a little obsessive compulsive and your can't stand the ugly hot glue showing, just cut a strip of your left over felt and glue it on top of the ugly part.

And there you have it,

a girl ruffly headband

to go with that outfit that needed an extra

something something.

Cloudy days give such an dramatic look to pictures!

I love it!
