Anyone else have a crazy amount of headbands at their house? It is so hard to know how to store them. They all end up in a drawer and make a mess. Today I thought I'd share a creative way I've come up with on how to store headbands using a Headband Tower.
I thought a nice "tower" would make them easier to keep track of. That way they can be seen but also have a home. I think they'll get worn more this way too.
Materials Needed
Empty Formula or Oatmeal Can
Knit fabric
Ruler
Sewing Machine
Step 1
First you need a "tower". I used an empty formula can, but oatmeal containers are great too. You'll also need some sort of knit fabric with some good stretch.
Step 2
Measure your cans height and circumference. Cut your knit fabric in a rectangle that is the height of the can + 1/2" and the circumference of the can + 1/2".
Fold fabric in half and stitch down the long side.
Step 3
Draw a circle around the lid onto the fabric. Cut a circle from the lid.
Step 4
Pin the circle to the top edge of the rectangle. Stitch the circle to one of the openings on your rectangle.
Step 5
Turn your fabric right side out and place it over your tower.
Voila! A cute and functional headband tower!
This is a great idea!! I think i will make some and give them to my friends and maybe even show them how to do it! Thanks!
