The girls at our store in Short Hills NJ wanted to share a project with you. Do you have more Free People cloth shopping bags than you know what to do with? Maybe you should make some headbands!!
First, cut a long strip from your bag, twice as wide as you want your headband.
With a contrasting thread, whip stitch the long edges together, and then turn the tube inside out.
Use some scrap fabrics with a cute print to make patches of color on your headband.
Sew em on there however you’d like.
Cut a triangle in each end to make a cute tail, then whip stitch the edges so the fabric doesn’t fray.

Recycled headband!!!
