Summer's back! And that means more Pinterest projects!! Recently, I was cutting the sleeves off of my t-shirts and turning them into workout shirts when I got the brilliant idea to turn my sleeves into headbands. So, once again, I turned to Pinterest.
What Pinterest showed me
compared to....
What I did
Okay, so I completely skipped steps 1-4
I started off with a shirt sleeve
Then I cut it along the seam...
ta-da!
Alright, so you need 5 strips of fabric
DON'T CUT THEM ALL THE WAY
I left about an inch on the fabric so the strips were still attached
It's a big help if you can hold the fabric down with something such as a keyboard as seen in the figure below
I had an extra. I just cut it off.
Then I just followed steps 5-12 repeatedly until I had this....
To tie it off, I choose one end of a strip and knotted the other strips around it.
Then I took the selected strip and tied it to the other end of the headband.
I also trimmed the ends of the other strips of fabric
BOOM.
I'm definitely going to make more of these. Maybe using different colored fabric.
NAILED IT!
