Anyeonghaseyo from Korea! My name is Ferial-Shmerial and I hail from Northern California. My husband and I have lived in Korea now for 2+ years teaching English. During our time here in Korea we have had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know K. Davis, and what a wonderful lady she is! It is an absolute honor to be guest-blogging for her on this, her first blog-aversary!
Start by cutting your chosen fabric into a few one-inch strips.
Put some glue at the very end of one of the sides of the headband and attach one of your fabric strips to the headband, making sure to leave a little fabric dangling off of the end. Begin wrapping the fabric around the headband, on an angle, using a dot of glue with each wrap.
Pull each wrap tight so that the fabric is resting flat on the headband, but don't pull too tight.
If you run out of fabric before you are finished wrapping the entire headband, do not fear! It is very easy to continue with a new strip of fabric.
To finish off, take those bits of dangling fabric on each side of the headband and tuck them on the outside** of the headband and then glue them down.
Once the headband and rosette are both dry, you can attach the rosette to the headband with the glue. I usually put the headband on my head and make a little marking of where I would like the rosette to be attached first. Make sure to glue down all ends of the rosette so that it is resting nice and flat against the headband.
Once you get the hang of using the glue and fabric you can experiment with all sorts of different designs! Here are a few of my experiments:
Happy Headband-ing and Happy Blogiversary K. Davis!
