Nothing too fancy, just good old-fashioned cloth headbands. Well, I suppose they are kind of fancy because they are adjustable (just like a bra strap) and reversible so they'll match lots of my daughter's outfits. The bra hardware comes six sets to a package so I made these using the black hardware first. That way, if my pattern didn't quite work and needed refinement, I wouldn't waste the prettier fabrics I bought. (They'll look better with white or clear hardware.) But now that I see these two, even with the black they turned out well.
I just love them - especially that dog one! But the best part is how they are adjustable. At their tightest the headbands fit my three year-old daughter, but at their loosest they'll fit me. So I know they will grow with her and fit for quite a while.
I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. Today I'm going to work on putting the finishing touches on the kid's costumes for the 39th Annual Mackinac Island Horse Show - which is tomorrow. I'll be back in a day or two with pictures!

Wow these look great. I love the dogs too. They are so sweet. My daughter at 18 months has tons of hairs so am always on the look out for cool hair bits.
I like the little kitty headband. I never thought to make adjustable headbands. Very clever.
What a great idea. I really love those headbands. I've made some with ponytail elastic bands, but these are much better.
Adorable, as always!
These are brilliant. I love that they'll fit you and your daughter :-)
What a cool idea! Love these! Have fun at the show!
They're perfect! And the fabrics are just adorable. Have a fun weekend!
Love your headbands! I need to get some of that "hardware" to fix a couple of my Daughter's dance leos. They are too expensive to just replace when they still fit her so well!
