I'm always looking for fun new things to create whether it be from Pinterest or people on the street etc. So a couple weeks ago at school my friend Celidh, (pronounced kay-leigh) was wearing this gorgeous royal blue floral head band. I had to ask her where she got it and she simply said "Oh I made it, with just hot glue a ribbon and some flowers". I thought it was such a fun idea that I had to try. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome so I had to share it with all of you! So this is how I did it.
What You'll Need:
-Hot glue gun
-Fake flowers (can find them at almost any dollar store)
-Ribbon of any colour (can be found at a dollar store, craft store such as Michaels, or Walmart
-Scissors
Step 1, Choose the ribbon you'd like to use and measure it around your head leaving extra length on each side to be able to tie it around your head once it is complete
Step 2, (optional) I chose to add a lace ribbon on top of the blue one to accent the rest of my head band. To attach the two use sporadic drops of hot glue along the ribbon until they are secured together
Step 3, cut off the stems of the flowers so you can glue the base flat onto the ribbon. Have fun placing them where ever it looks pleasing to you. I even added some extra accents such as the fake baby's breath, and the leaves! You could even add different coloured flowers instead of making your head band just one colour! Be creative and have fun!
Step 4, Fasten the head band on, and ta da! You are done! The best part was because I already had ribbon lying around my craft room this headband only cost me $2.50
That's my girl! Love her.
