Let’s make more head pieces for our New Year’s Eve party. These headbands are super easy to make. Since it didn’t take much time to make these, I was thrilled. Just like you, I am so busy this time of year. Get your teens to help you. They’ll love it!
Feathered Headband
Supplies:
- Metal headband
- Black satin ribbon – 5/8″
- Black Dyed Pheasant pad
- Shocking Pink Peacock Tails
- Glittery embellishments
- Double sided tape
Directions:
Cover a metal headband using our tutorial from our Headband Week theme.
It can be found on the Wednesday Tip for December 14.
Embellish the headband with a feather pad and peacock feathers or a silk flower to jazz it up. Use hot glue to secure it to the headband.
Or if you want a more formal look, just add a single tuxedo bow.
Here is another headband idea.
Glitzy Star Headband
Supplies:
- Covered metal or plastic headband
- Hot pink satin 5/8″ ribbon
- Silver and Fuchsia Glitter Stars
- Glitter pipe cleaners from Hobby Lobby
- Hot Glue
Directions:
Cover a headband with ribbon.
Attach silver and black glittery pipe cleaners by twisting them around the headband. Cut some pipe cleaners in half, others will be full size. Make the ends stick up. Add as many as you wish.
I altered the silver and black pipe cleaners as I twisted them on the headband, making some longer than others to create different heights.
Twist and turn the spikes to make them fun and funky. You can wrap a pipe cleaner around a pen or pencil to make it spiral on the end.
Hot glue pink and silver Glitter Stars to the ends of the spikes. 
Shape the pipe cleaners into the numbers 2012.
Voila! You have a fun, funky, and festive headband to wear to your New Year’s Eve party. Everyone will have fun wearing them.
Happy New Year!
See you in 2012
