Flower Headband Craft

Hi girls! Today I bring you a super-quick and easy craft! It's also really really cute. Can you guess what we're making? Flower headbands! I love these sooooo much! People say I look like a hippie when I wear these, but they're in style and adorable no matter what. So... Let's get started!

First, The materials you will need are:


  • Small flower beads or paper flowers
  • Leather cord or plain string
  • A hot glue gun
  • Scissors
  • About 10 minutes of time
Ok, now, get your leather cord/string and wrap it around your doll's head like this:















(Yes, I know, poor Emily's hair is a disaster.)

Then, tie the cord in a loose knot and cut it carefully, leaving a little extra string.

Next, get your flower beads or whatever decoration you'll be using. 












(I used these)

Now just hot glue your decoration on to the headband! (But make sure you take it off your doll first!) When you're done just put the headband back on your doll. (Once again with a loose knot) And Ta Da!! You have an adorable, stylish, flower/hippie headband for your doll!















:) Emily's so stylish, isn't she? Lol. Her dress does not match the headband at all. Sorry 'bout that. Anyway, I hope you try this craft out yourself! It's super easy, I promise! If you do do this, feel free to post it on your blog and leave me a link to the post in the comments below. I'd appreciate if you gave me some credit for the idea though. For this post's question, (Because if you haven't noticed, I ask my readers LOTS of questions!) Please comment what your style is like! Are you trendy, classic, casual? I'd love to know! Until next time,

  4. Emily looks super cute! I think I'll try making one.
    I'm not really sure what my style is. I'm most likely trendy and girly with a little bit of boho :0)
