Upcycled T-shirts: Head Banging Headbands

So, what do you do with the scraps from your upcycled retro-thrift-store t-shirts?  Make headbands, for one thing!



Tada! New redone shirt and hair accessory, to boot!




Here's whatcha do.

• Take a longish length of your t-shirt snippings, create a loop that comfortable fits over your head as a headband, and tie in a double knot.
• If you don't have a longish length, take two smaller ones and sew them together (as I did with this one) and follow the knot instruction above.
• Using smaller scraps, tie to knot to create a pom-pom (or starfish, as I like to call mine.)
• Slip it on and high five everyone you meet that day.

Friend #1:  "Wherever did you get the charming hair accessory?"

You:  "I made it!  Amazing what you can do with t-shirt scraps, isn't it?"

Friend #1:  "Oh yes, quite amazing.  I think I'll make one, too!"

You:  "Now your thinkin'!"

Enchantè! 

Thrift, upcycle, have fun!
