This tutorial for How to Make a Stretchy Headband is perfect for those of us trying to keep the hair out of our little one’s faces or just for washing our face!
We wear a lot of headbands around here.
My missy has a lot of hair and for whatever reason, her hair is the type that refuses to stay pulled back into her ponytail (prime example, lol.) Our solution for this issue is headbands! The bad news is we keep loosing all our headbands, good news is that they are super easy to make!
Our favorite type of headband is the kind made from stretchy fabric.
These little headbands are perfect for keeping your hair out of your face for sports, washing your face at night or to use at dinner time. (Please tell me we are not the only ones who finish dinner with as much food in our hair as is left on the plate, lol.)

Volleyball just started back up for us, so I decided I needed to replenish our supply of headbands. (A girl can never have too many headbands, lol!) The headbands only take a small amount of stretch knit fabric, so they are a great way to use up some of your scrap fabric. And they are so easy to make, you can whip up several in just a few minutes.
Thy look great with hair up or down!

Is this a standard size for an adult?
I would like to make some in that size, but also for my 4 year old grand daughter.
Is it one size fits all?
Jamie says
yes, one size fits all.

Need this for boys and girls to attach floppy bunny ears to the top.
1. Would this work to wear under the chin, instead of to back of neck?
2. What is the best way to wear this so it covers the ears?
Jamie says
I have not tried it under the chin but you might try making it a bit wider to cover the ears. We don’t wear our this way, so I cant give any more info.
good luck, jamie
