Valentine's Day is upon us and my babies are ready, with a couple of outfits that didn't cost a thing to make. I upcycled a plain shirt for my son here and used this wonderful tutorial to make my daughter a beautiful bubble dress. From a onesie that was too short and an old maternity dress...
...to this beauty!
I really love it!
Now, those of you who know me know that I am so not into many adornments—big bows big headbands, but I have really been liking the little turban-style headbands I've seen lately, and I had a good idea for that leftover bottom piece of the onesie.
This one is super quick!
Take any wide headband you have and an old scrap of fabric (t-shirt or jersey knit is best-won't fray and has stretch). How perfect was this red stretch headband?
Cut a rectangle that is wider that what you want to end up with.
Pull each end to stretch a bit, just until the ends curl under a little.
Find the seam in your headband and fold this piece over the headband (keep those curled edges folded under for a clean look. Trim the length if you need to.
Use a small line of hot glue under the bottom piece to adhere and that is it!
And just in case you need some "Awww" in your life, here are my models!
