Have you ever wanted to wear a hair ribbon, but had none to match your clothes?

Maybe you made a pretty outfit and your headband clashes.

Well, there is a simple solution: make your own hair ribbon/ headband. It is super simple All you need is a 6 inch (This will make a 2 1/2 inch wide ribbon)  by 30-36 inch rectangle of any fabric.

If you don’t have enough, you can sew several scraps together before cutting your rectangle. Fold it half lengthwise with right sides together making a 3 inch by 30-36 inch rectangle. ribbon6Pin and then sew along the 36 inch side.

Fold one of the short sides so that you have a small right triangle. Cut so that the end is angled, and repeat on the other side. Sew along one of the angled sides.

Turn right side out and press flat.

Fold the edge of the side that wasn’t sewn towards the inside and pin.

Sew as close to the edge as you can. Cut hanging threads. Wear and enjoy.   ribbon7 ribbon8 ribbon9
