So cute! I want to make a dozen scarf headbands, so I can wear a different one every day.

Lately Dollar Tree has been carrying really cute, lightweight scarves for every season and holiday, and we love them!  Heather recently used one to decorate a headband, giving you the perfect knotted-on-top-of-the-head look with practically no effort.

So cute! I want to make a dozen scarf headbands, so I can wear a different one every day.

Project estimate:

  • Plastic headband, $1
  • Scarf, on hand or $1
  • Hot glue, on hand

Total:  $1 and up!

First, tie the ends of the scarf together in a knot so that they make a cute bow shape.

This will create a loop of scarf.  With the bow at one end of the loop, find the midpoint of the other end and use scissors to snip it, giving your bow two long tails.

Hot glue the bow onto the headband where you would like it to be positioned – you will probably want it a little off-center.

Wrap the long tails around the rest of the headband. Trim the excess from the ends and glue in place.  Repeat with both tails to cover the entire headband with scarf.

That’s it!
