"Project Denim" Diminishing the Jean Pile, Episode 3: Up-cycled Denim Headbands


Happy Day my friends! Hope you are all well. I've been knee-deep in denim!! But the pile is getting
smaller, thanks to all these little projects. Today's project features a headband made of worn-out jeans. I just cut strips of denim from the pant leg, going the long way. I frayed the edges and sewed a small piece of elastic to each end of the headband to connect the ends together. The size of strip and elastic depends on what size your head is. I cut a strip (long) and then wrapped it around my head and left about 2" short, for the elastic. Then I embellished the headbands with denim and fabric flowers. This was fun and easy!
Here are a few of the ones I made:




 
Thanks for tuning in to "Project Denim!" Come on back if you are digging the denim!!

    1. Thanks Suzi,
      My pile is getting smaller, but still has a long way to go! (I fear that by the time I'm done...it will be denim as far as the eye can see!!)
      Thanks for stopping by.
