I wasn’t looking for DIY headband ideas, until my sister-in-law came over wearing an awesome headband that she made herself. I’m now on the hunt for DIY headbands, and I’m sharing my favorite finds with you!
DIY Headband Ideas
1. My sister-in-law wears a braided headband. I absolutely love it! It’s very simple to make, too.
2. The slip-hook headband is fun. Just create a loop with one half of the fabric, then slip the other half through to make a “knot.” Stitch the ends together, and that makes the back of the headband.
3. Try a lace headband with jewel accents—this is so cute for a baby!
4. A tied-in-front DIY headband is as simple as it gets. Start with a 2-3″ strip of stretchy fabric, then tie it in a knot at the top! See this idea on Pinterest.
5. A sailor knot headband is really cute from nothing other than an old t-shirt!
6. How about a reversible headband? With just a few of these, you get enough headbands to wear with every outfit!
7. Spruce up a plain headband with pearl beads or other embellishments.

13. Here’s a DIY headband idea that is cute as button. Let your girls pick out a bunch of buttons they like, and make this cute headband together. You’ll need 1/2″ elastic cut to fit their heads, and enough buttons to cover the top 2/3. Glue the buttons to the elastic with a bit of hot glue, and for extra insurance, teach your girls how to sew the buttons on after the glue dries.
