Super Simple DIY Headband for Spring

Hello all! Long time, no post! I'm back today to teach you how to make a super simple headband. This project takes less than five minutes, and most of the things you will need you probably already have. This headband is perfect whether you want to wear your hair up or down! Keep reading to find out how to make it! :)
 You Will Need:
  • Small Thin Hair Ties- I used 11. You may need a few more or less. You can make the headband in whatever color you want. I used pastel colors for spring. :)

The process of making the headband is super simple. However, it may seem a little complicated at first. Keep trying, and I'm sure you'll get it!
  • First, set one hair tie aside for the last step. Then, organize the remaining hair ties in the order that you like.
  • Next, take two of the hair ties and loop one around the other.

  •  Take the end of the hair tie that you looped through, in this case it would be the top side of the purple hair tie, and loop it through itself.
  
 
  • Pull the two hair ties away from each other tightly. It will look like this.
 
  •  Repeat this process with the remaining hair ties, adding on to either end of the one you just made. You may want to check every so often to see if it is long enough to fit around your  head. 
 

  • Once you have created a long enough chain, wrap it around your head with the two loose ends held together at the back of your head. Using the hair tie that you laid aside at the beginning, tie the two loose ends together by wrapping the hair tie around them. For this step, you could also use one of those small clear elastics. 
 

VoilĂ ! Your headband is complete! If you don't like the order you put the hair ties in, simply untie the chain and reorganize it. :)
