DIY Headband Tutorial With Flowers

This is a step-by-step tutorial for a DIY headband. To decorate the homemade headbands, we use foam sheets to create layered flowers. This is an easy and inexpensive way to make a personalized headband and a great craft for older kids! You can create a variety of flowers by using different colors of foam sheets and patterns. The brads used to cinch the flower layers together and also serve as the decorative flower centers, also come in a variety of colors, textures, and styles.  These DIY floral headbands are easy to make and easy to customize by adding more or less flowers, sticking to a color theme, or matching a specific outfit.

Supplies for Homemade Headbands:

  • Foam sheets
  • Headbands
  • Glue gun
  • Rhinestone Brads
  • Pen or pencil
  • Scissors
  • Glitter optional

How To Make Homemade Headband:

  1. First, you will need to create a flower stencil. You can create your own or find a pattern online. Go for two or three different sizes so you can stack them and get a 3D effect for your DIY flower headband.

2. Using the stencils you have created, trace around them onto the foam sheet.

3. Next, cut out your foam flowers.

5. Create as many flowers as you would like to put onto the headband in any color you prefer. For this specific head band I used 7 flowers.

6. Add glitter for decoration. Optional.

These DIY Headbands can be customized to suit your favorite colors with as many or as few flowers as you like.

7. Lastly, use your glue gun and glue the flowers onto the headband. (If a child is doing this craft with you, be sure to exercise care with the glue gun and make sure they understand that glue guns can get hot enough to burn.) Make sure you allow the glue to dry fully and then you are done! Enjoy!
