I Heart Headbands

Like my closet, my headband drawer is way too cramped. As a lover of headbands, I decided it was time to treat my headbands with a little more respect because the flowers and feathers adorning my headbands are losing their shape. So in an effort to revive my accessories, my Dad and I built a headband stand to help keep their shape, but to showcase them in a practical yet fashionable way.

Materials Used:
-2 Gatorade Powder Canisters (empty)
-Aluminum Foil Tape
-Plaster
-Styrofoam
-Spray Adhesive
-Faux Fur
-Ribbon
-Hot Glue Gun
-Rhinestones
-Mini Mirrors

1) Put plaster or anything to add weight in the bottom of one of the Gatorade Cans. This will prevent the stand from tipping over.

2) Using the styrofoam, cut out 2-1"circles (the same diameter of the inside of the canister) and place once styrofoam circle in each of the canisters about half way down. The styrofoam circles should fit snuggly inside and will help hold the shape of the canisters.

3) Align the open ends of the canisters and secure them using the aluminum foil tape.

4) Once the stand is secure, spray the adhesive and affix the ribbon and faux to the stand. I used faux fur for the main part because it added thickness to hold the headband.

5) Finally, use a hot glue gun to bedazzle your stand. I chose rhinestones and mini mirrors.
