Cut just inside the drawn lines to make a circle out of the fabric. Braided Headband Tutorial. It's chilly outside here today and I'm loving it!

What you need- Thick hair tie Six 1" strips of fabric Bulldog clip or safety pin Sewing machine (or needle and thread) Fabric tac I ripped my fabric strips so they were a bit frayed on the edges, personal choice. Tack each end of the braid just enough that it doesn't come undone . Then tack both braids together on each end, be careful not to twist the braids.
