Santa Belt Hair Bow Tutorial


Last week I showed you how I made my daughter's Christmas Skirt. I wanted to create a simple hair band to go with the skirt and this is what I came up with.

Supplies:
  • 2 inch black satin ribbon
  • scrap gold fabric
  • scrap red velvet fabric
  • fusible web
  • plain hair band
  • hot glue gun

Directions:
  1. Take scrap red velvet fabric and wrap around headband. Hot glue ends in place.
  2. Draw a one inch square. Draw 1/4" inch lines on each side of square. Draw another 1/4" line on right and left side of square.
  3. Place the buckle template underneath a piece of fusible web paper side up. Cut out and place on the wrong side of the gold fabric. Iron on and cut out the template you traced.
  4. Remove paper backing and place on top of the wrong side of another gold piece of fabric. Cut out.
  5. Cut a piece of ribbon that is  12" long. Overlap ends by 1/2" and sew in place. 
  6. Thread ribbon through the buckle going in from the back and out again into the back. 
  7. Glue the "belt" bow to the headband.

  1. Oh man, I just bought my nephew a little elf pajama set and we were thinking how to make him a little hat or headband to match. I might have to use this idea to come up with a little boy headband for him!

  14. Pensez-vous que cela devrait causer du blâme si vous allez acheter du viagra bon marché? Qu'est-ce qui est dangereux https://je-taime.be/acheter-viagra-en-belgique/ ? Il n'en est rien. C'est juste que tous les médicaments ne sont pas chers. En passant, cela ne signifie pas que cela coûte cher, cela signifie que cela aidera. J'ai utilisé ce médicament et je suis satisfait
