How to make a black lace bow headband?
Step 1: wrap headband and make a lace bow
1st, cut out a piece of 38mm wide black lace trim measuring 2cm longer than the headband;
2nd, wrap the headband including both ends with the lace trim and secure with glue;
3rd, cut out three strips of 28mm wide lace trims measuring 12cm or so. Here I cut six strips, it’s too much;
4th, loop a strip and glue both ends, then fold the middle of the strip to make a bow.
Step 2: make another two lace bows and add beads
1st, secure the bow with thread and glue it on the headband in place;
2nd, adjust the bow to make it look neater;
3rd, do the same to make another two bows and glue them on the headband too;
4th, glue an indigo bead and a green bead in the center of each bow. Make sure the beads are attached firmly.
Wrap a strip of purple ribbon around each side of the headband and secure with glue. Now you’ve finished this black lace bow headband.
At first, I didn’t intend to add satin ribbons, but when I saw the final look, I realized that it was so black besides the beads. So I wrapped charming purple ribbons to spruce up the black headband. Of course, it is good if you love the all black lace bow headband, all depends on your taste!
