Adjustable Headband

I am all about keeping my hair out of my face these days. So instead of putting it in a pony every day I have reverted to headbands.
I LOVE this one because unlike every other one I've tried it doesn't give me a headache 2-3 hours in.

To make your own you will need: 1 yard of ribbon, hot glue gun and plasctic cord spots with 2 holes (I bought these ones at JoAnns, I would like to also purchase them in white and clear but they don't carry those colors there... I will have to keep on the look out)

I put a thin bead of hot glue along the center of the ribbon so it doesn't slip out of my hair. I stopped 4-ish inches from both ends as to get just the majority of the ribbon that will be on my hair. (does that make sense?)

Put the ends of the ribbon through the holes in the stopper.

Loosen or tighten to comfort! Easy Peasy!!

Baby asleep, no makeup, pj's, bleach trays= time to craft.

Ooh, those are really cute. I've also seen the cord stops at Hancock fabrics; they're up by the register if you have one close by. ;)

I love the tip about using a glue gun to lay down a bead of glue on the back of the ribbon to keep it from slipping on your head. I swear I have an odd shaped head and headbands that go all the way around my head never stay on. This is a great idea!

Hancock Fabric sells the cord stopper in bulk. They are 25 cents.(You may need to ask.) My 14 year old daughter and I made 10 headbands for less than $5. She is very excited to wear them to school. Thanks for the simple and economical ideas you share on your blog.
