Easy, inexexpensive headband...

This is a really inexpensive head band. I use the $.33 cent knee highs you get in the plastic containers from really any drug store or even Wal-Mart. The "Queen" size or bigger (if you can find it) is the ones I use, so there is plenty to work with without it being to tight.

1. Stretch the hose to get them to straighten out.
2. Fold (long way) in half and pull/stretch again to help it stay together.
3. Fold to make a loop, about 1 1/2 inches from the ribbed portion.

4. Sew together making sure to sew over the seam at least twice to make the seam stronger.

5. Cut along seam leaving at least 1/16 of an inch from the seam.

6.Turn seam inward.
7. Using extra smooth piece, loop around headband and pull tight so that you don't sew the actually headband.

8. Sew loop. Go over at least twice to help hold together.


9. Cut the remainder off, leaving 1/16 of an inch from the seam.

10. Turn the small band right side out so the sewn seam is hidden.
11. Rotate seam to face inside of headband and pull over the headband seam to make a seamless look.

12. Your all done! Now you have an interchangeable stretch headband.

I believe the hose come in white, cream, black, blue and brown too and each hose container makes two headbands.
