builderofstuff Report post Posted November 26, 2010 I was wondering if anyone has ever made any of those headbands that women wear on top of their heads to keep their hair pulled back. My fiance really likes wearing those and I thought that making her some for Christmas might be nice. Does anyone have any information on making those? Thanks, Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azrider Report post Posted November 27, 2010 I make them in a couple of widths. I use a 16 inch strip of 3-4 oz leather, at 3/8 of an inch wide, and 6-8 inches of elastic sewn to each end of the leather. I also make a 1 1/2 inch wide one out of scraps from belts. I use the black elastic you can get at sewing shops, and trim it, and then melt it to keep it from unraveling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
