Craft: Grosgrain headband

This is something I wanted to do for awhile. I’ve seen lots of grosgrain ribbon headbands in stores these days and thought they should be really simple to make. So I finally got around to trying to make one today and here is the result:

The one on the left is from J.Crew and the one on the right is hand-made by me.

I know, the way I just sewed on the elastic band on the ribbon is messy. I’ll have to refine my methods as I make more. This is just a little practice ;)

The problem with elastic headbands is that they never stay on my head. I always need the help of at least three hairpins. Is it just me? I prefer the plastic headbands to the elastic ones but these are so easy to make, and with all kinds of grosgrain ribbons available, it’ll be hard not to make another one. Well, till next time. :)
