Easy Ribbon Headbands




I love headbands so I decided to try to make some extremely quick and easy ones from random ribbon I had lying around my stash. I measured my head from the top, behind my ears and all the way to the base of my neck. I took that measurement and subtracted about 1 1/4 inches then sewed on a 2 inch piece of elastic with a 1/4 seam. Next time I would make the ribbon shorter and add a longer piece of elastic to make it a little easier to put on. I practiced on cheap leftovers but plan on getting some elaborate (and wider) beaded stuff soon to make some headbands that are less Thanksgiving related and a little more work friendly :)
