How to Tie A Turban Headband : Strawberry Koi
When I met up with a friend quite a while ago, she was wearing a scarf in such a way that quite perplexed me, with a knot that seemed to have no start nor end and had the look of a turban-inspired headband. Discovering how easy it really is to tie, I’ve been wearing it ever since about once a week. It’s great for hiding hair-pins or day-old curls … not that I ever have day-old curls or.. anything, of course not. Anyway, I created this tutorial for Vintage Life magazine, which you really must check out for more insanely inspiring vintage goodness!

How To: Rolled Fabric Flowers
So I am jumping on the bandwagon and loving all the rolled fabric flowers I've seen here and there. We decided to make some with the girls in our church youth group, but I couldn't find a great tutorial on how to make them so I played around and this is what I came up with.Enjoy! Start with about a 1" ripped strip of fabric (you can use any width...this was the width I liked best). The length and weight of your fabric will dictate the end diameter of your flower. Fold the strip in half and dot a little fabric glue on the end 1/2" or so.
