DIY Headbands are great craft projects. They are great because they are usually easy to make, require only a few materials, and can easily be tailored to fit a little girl or an adult's head. DIY headbands make for wonderful handmade gifts, too. I admit that I don't like wearing headbands because they give me headaches but I do love making them. I spent many hours in Home Economics class hand sewing DIY headbands out of scrap fabrics. Fun times.

Tutorial
Creating this Anthropologie-esque headband involves using faux pearls and basic craft supplies you might already have at home. Gather your tools: a plain headband, hot glue gun, and an assortment of pearls. Start by arranging the pearls on the headband before you begin gluing to plan out your desired pattern. Once you're happy with the layout, carefully use the hot glue gun to attach the pearls. This chic accessory is perfect for when you want to add a touch of elegance to your outfit without breaking the bank.
