How to make a hair tie from fabric. Four beautiful DIY hair ties - master classes for fashionistas and their mothers. Felt accessories

Hi all! My friends, although it’s not spring outside yet, the time is not far off when we will all be walking around without hats. It’s worth taking care in advance about how your head will look, especially if you have very long hair. That is why today we will make our own hair ties!

We will move, so to speak, from the most basic to something more complex. In any case, you will definitely cope with all types of these elastic bands, because I will describe in detail how to make each of them

In fact there is simply incredible great amount ideas for creating rubber bands (and not only). And almost every one of them can be brought to life with the help of simple manipulations. In general, I will show you a lot of hair accessories. Make yourself comfortable, I’ll open the door for you to the amazing (really!) world of hair accessories (no matter how strange it may sound :))

Before you start, take a look here. When you get inspired, come back))

The basis of a hair tie or the simplest model

In order to make the base, you will first need:

  • linen or just a thin elastic band (15-20 cm);
  • a piece of fabric (the length is approximately 2 - 3 times longer than the length of the elastic band, the width is arbitrary);
  • threads in the color of the fabric;
  • needle;
  • pin;
  • scissors.

Take the prepared piece of fabric, fold it in half lengthwise, and sew along the edge. Then fold the stitched piece with the holes facing each other and sew along the edge, leaving an opening for turning inside out. Turn the workpiece inside out.

Now insert the elastic band. Tie it, sew up the hole. That's all. This model can be used as an independent product or as a basis for a more sophisticated elastic band.

DIY hair ties: master classes and photos

You just can’t imagine how many rubber bands you can make! Now let's look at the options for elastic bands that can be made even without serious knowledge of sewing art.

Four variations

To jump into creativity right away, I suggest you take a look at these four rubber band options. You can find each of them in one way or another in my articles about homemade gifts. At the end of the article I provide links to those master classes.

In short: bows are made using multiple folds. In the first case, several ribbons are folded, and in the second, the folds are formed from one strip. The flowers are collected from tightly gathered ribbon glued to the base circle. In the latter case, a bow is also placed on top.

Here's another bow option:

Beautiful and fashionable

I see this model very often now. Do you want to be the center of attention? Then make this beautiful and eye-catching scrunchie. Prepare a piece of fabric, wire, warp and thread with scissors.

Cut two ovals from the fabric and sew them together along the edge, leaving a hole. Insert a wire there. Place the future bow in an elastic band and tie it.

Elegant

There is no shame in wearing such an accessory for the evening. For it, prepare a base, shiny (optional) yarn, various kinds of beads and a crochet hook (although if the yarn is thick enough, you can do it with your hands).

The most important thing here is to tie the base properly. I don’t know what the correct name for this type of binding is, but it reminded me of a voluminous buttonhole stitch. As you weave, gradually add beads (this can be done later by pulling a thread through the elastic and gradually stringing them onto it).

Children's elastic bands for little girls

A five-leaf flower can be created by a simple operation: take a circle, sweep it along the edge, pull it together and stuff it. At the end, you sew it up and make several tightenings from the center.

They love to attach such flowers to the headbands of newborns and young children in general. Take several circles of different sizes, make cuts along the edges and burn them. All that remains is to fasten it in the center with a bead.

Button happiness

Do you have a few original buttons that are definitely not useful for clothes, but do not give rest to your creativity? Then put them to use! Everything is as simple as shelling pears: take an elastic band, a button and sew one to the other. If the buttons are small and the base is wide, then you can simply make button decoration.

All kinds are welcome additional decorations: ribbons, rhinestones, etc.

Lace elastic

An elastic band can be sewn in the same way as a base for an elastic band, but with one difference: after stitching, the fabric piece does not turn inside out. With the help of lace you get a very light and playful look.

The second option is with lace: this time only the flower is made from this wonderful material, and not the entire elastic band. To do this, just gather the lace and sew it in the center, the rest is a matter of decoration.

Elastic band "Bow"

An elastic band with a bow can be sewn from absolutely any fabric! I decided to experiment with fur

Below I decided to show you in a diagram how I made the bow. First, make the base for the elastic band, and then for the bow, take a wide strip of fabric and sew it in half (the same as for the base).

Then you sew the ends of the bow together, folding the piece in half again. Turn the elastic inside out and pull it in the center with a strip of fabric.

It turns out this cuteness:

From the usual cotton fabric you get the following:

Elastic band “Bunny ears”

One day I wandered into a free master class as part of the BiblioTime project (I talked about it). The theme of the handicraft meeting was rubber bands. But if everyone decorated the cut with beads, then I decided to distinguish myself by remembering the “eared” specimens.

Unfortunately, I don’t have any photos of that product, but I can tell you about the creation of an elastic band with ears

To make such an elastic band, you will need a pattern:

Again we need a base for the elastic band. The ears are tied in a knot around it and you get a romantic and girlishly delicate look. What you need for spring

Rubber band "Jack" (Halloween)

Hair ties are a common and everyday item. But even such a little thing can become a bright accent in your image, adding charm, sophistication, unusualness and originality to it. Of course, you can pick them up in a store or order them online, or you can sew and decorate the rubber bands yourself. Such a product will be unique and inimitable.

Master class on making accessories

There are many different types of hair ties. They can be satin, textile, lace and even plastic. Depending on the style and purpose, they can be supplemented with feathers, beads, rhinestones and other interesting details. But first you need to learn how to make the base for an elastic band.

Base for gum

The basis of a hair elastic from a regular elastic band is the first thing you need to learn how to do when creating unusual jewelry for hair with your own hands.

For this you will need:

To make the base of the scrunchie, you first need to make a fabric “wrapper” for it to make it look aesthetically pleasing.

Take a rectangular piece of fabric. Fold it in half along the long side, right sides facing in, and stitch along the long edge.

If the workpiece turns out to be wide, you can connect the ends of the workpiece and stitch it approximately to the middle, leaving a small hole for turning it inside out.

Now you need to turn the workpiece inside out, insert an elastic band, tie its ends and sew the opposite ends of the product. Ready product you can supplement it and decorate it with various decorative elements.

Satin bow

To the light and gentle summer dress DIY elastic bands made from satin ribbons are perfect. To make them you will need the following materials and tools:

  • finished product;
  • satin ribbons and lace of arbitrary length;
  • beads in the color of the lace or contrasting, but combined with them;
  • needle;
  • threads

Rubber bands can be shaped like a bow or a flower..

For everyday wear, you can make elastic bands from grosgrain ribbons with your own hands. This is almost the same as satin ribbons, but they are matte and denser and can have a variety of colors. In addition, this material is much more docile and does not require processing - the edges of the tape can simply be burned.

  • Option 3. Take a wide satin ribbon or a strip of delicate chiffon. Make a tie in the middle of the strip, along its entire length with a “forward needle” stitch and tighten the thread. It should form a nice fluffy bow. Tie the middle with a ribbon.

It is not necessary to make a new base for each elastic band yourself; you can use ready-made elastic bands from the store.

Flower decoration

To make a flower, you will need a ribbon, as well as a small base. You can take, for example, cardboard.

Cut out a circle the size of the core of a flower, prepare threads, a needle and a button or large bead in the center.

To make a flower, you need to gather the ribbon along one edge so that when you tighten the thread, a circle is formed. Do this twice with two different scraps.

Now they need to be glued to cardboard base so that she is in the middle. To disguise sloppiness, place a beautiful button or bead in the center. Sew the finished flower to the base.

For a sophisticated outfit and hairstyle, a rosebud in a young lady's hair will look great. It is also made from satin ribbon. You will need ribbon, a needle, and threads in color. The step-by-step manufacturing process is shown in the photo.

Holiday decoration for a little girl

For gentle summer or lush ball gown A hairband with a rosebud made of thin translucent fabric is ideal. For example, you can use chiffon. To work you will need scissors, thread, a needle and a candle. Cut squares from fabric different sizes(from 3x3 to 6x6, for example). There are 5-7 pieces of each type at your discretion.

Now each of them needs to be carefully brought with tweezers to a burning candle so that its edges are slightly scorched and change shape. Do not forget about safety precautions when working with fire.

When all the parts are processed, assemble them onto a thread from largest to smallest. Sew a large bead or a beautiful button into the core. To finish, use ribbons in soft green shades to create an imitation of leaves. This rose looks very impressive and will perfectly complement your outfit.

In this way, you can make not only a children's elastic band or headband, but also a hairpin or even a brooch with a bud for an adult lady.

Original approach

Very interesting and original DIY rubber bands for girls - ears. They will require a base made in advance and a small piece of bright fabric. The material can be any, for example cotton. You will need to cut out 2 parts from the fabric according to the pattern.

Since the pattern only shows half of the piece, the fabric needs to be folded in half along the fold line before cutting.

Sew both pieces together right sides inward, but not all the way, but leaving a small hole in the middle. Through it, the product will need to be turned inside out, and if desired, the ears will need to be filled with a small amount of padding polyester or other filler. Only after this should it also be sewn up.

Tighten the middle of the ears with a small strip of fabric or ribbon. Using it, sew the ears to the base.

Felt accessories

Another material that is great for creating cute homemade hair decorations is felt. You can use it to make bows, flowers, faces of various animals that will look original and unusual on any hairstyle. The felt does not crumble and holds its shape well, as it is very dense. This allows you to avoid processing the cut parts.

To make a flower, you need to draw 2-4 patterns in the shape of a flower of various sizes and cut them along the contour. And then sew them together in order from largest to smallest. Add a button, rhinestones or bead to the center.

You can make several flowers and attach them all to one elastic band. You can sew them around the perimeter or connect 3 flowers into a small bouquet and then attach them to the base.

To make animal elastic bands, use the most simple patterns. You can sew several pieces of felt to give the figure thickness, or connect 2 identical pieces and add a little filler inside. For example, you can make a cat. There is no need to make a tail; use only the main part of the pattern.

A set of beautiful and bright hair ties can serve as a wonderful gift or a pleasant bonus to a big gift for your good friend, sister, niece, daughter. Small child will be delighted with the bright product, and adults will appreciate your creativity and attentiveness.
