How to make an elastic band for hair? This question is often asked by girls with long hair. A variety of elastic bands are able to modify the hairstyle, they can be chosen both for everyday outfit and for an evening out. There are options for little girls and schoolgirls, and there are original products for adult ladies.

Our article is about do-it-yourself hair. The basis of any product is a purchased simple elastic band without any decorations and decorate it depending on the wishes, the chosen color and style. You can wrap the elastic completely with fabric, or you can only add a central decorative element made of fabric, ribbons or lace. Often a bright brooch or button, beads or rhinestones are sewn into the middle. Consider a few interesting ideas how to make hair tie different ways.

Elastic band on a felt basis

This option is suitable for beginner craftsmen, since making such a craft is quite simple. As a basis, take a small circle cut out of felt. In this case, we see that in the sample in the photo below, we used yellow. To decorate the gum, you need to prepare many identical pieces of pink ribbon, a package of small decorative lace flowers, beads to decorate the middle and a fluffy pompom white color.

The decoration of the product begins with the attachment of pieces of tape bent with loops. First, the edges of the tape must be melted with a candle or a lighter so that the threads at the edges do not subsequently fall off. You can grab the loops with stitches to the base of felt or glue with a glue gun. The next step is to place the flowers close to each other along the inner circumference so that the ends of the ribbon are not visible. It remains to glue half beads at an equal distance or sew on round beads (you can use rhinestones or pebbles, beads or other decorative material) and set a fluffy ball in the very middle. When everything is ready, sew the craft on an elastic band from the back.

Contrasting bow

Before you make your own scrunchie, think about what color ribbons you will need so that the product is in harmony with clothes and accessories. To make such beautiful bow, as in the photo below, you need to buy a wide and narrow ribbon in light chocolate color and white organza. To connect all the layers of the craft, a beige button was used, on which you can glue a bright crown with rhinestones.

Start work on wide ribbon. Do not cut off the segment immediately, so as not to be mistaken. It is better to first fold the bow, consisting of several turns, leaving small beveled edges at the beginning of the work and at the end. Melt them immediately so that the cut sides look neat and the threads do not fall off when using an elastic band. At the central point, make a few stitches with threads matched to match, thereby fixing the bow.

The next step is to pick up a wide strip of organza, folded in half. To do this, stepping back a little from the edge, stitch the entire length of the fabric with stitches, tighten the thread and sew to the bottom tape. Lastly, a thin ribbon bent with eyelets is attached, and all layers are connected with a decorated button.

Three-layer bows with beads

Before you make a beautiful scrunchie as in the photo below, pick up a wide and thin ribbon in white and medium width with a contrasting pattern. The central holder of all layers is red bright heart.

Long ends are left only for thin tape located on top of two bows. 3 beads are strung on each hanging edge, matched in the same color scheme as the tapes. The edges are tied into tight knots so that the beads do not fall off when moving.

Kanzashi flowers

How to make small hair ties so that they look spectacular? The kanzashi technique will help. This is the manufacture of beautiful floral elements from simple satin ribbons. Flowers consist of 5 identical petals (two white and three red) and two green ribbon leaves. Let's see how to make such elements.

To create a petal, you need to cut squares of white and red. Then each folds in half diagonally. Then a couple of folds are made on each side, collecting the edges in the center. It is most convenient to use tweezers to hold the tissue together. Then trim the lower edge with scissors and melt with a lighter, pressing all the layers with tweezers. One petal is ready! All other details are made in the same way and glued to each other with a glue gun, attaching a small pebble for beauty in the center.

How to make leaves

After making the main flower for the elastic bands for the girl, get to work on the leaves. To do this, you need to fold a green ribbon 10 cm long in half. We leave the bent edge intact, but from one of its corners we draw straight line to the opposite on the other side and cut with scissors as planned. Get a triangle. Again, the cut edges are melted and pressed against each other with tweezers or fingers. Hold a little and they are securely glued together without glue.

It remains only to turn the blank to the other side and attach the leaves under the previously made flower. Here you can use a glue gun to glue the parts together and attach the decoration to the elastic itself.

Bow of kanzashi petals

Now let's look at how to make bow-shaped hair ties from a ribbon. You will need a base to place the finished petals. It is most convenient to cut it out of a sheet of felt, matched to the color satin ribbon. You already know how to make petals using the kanzashi technique. To make this hair band, you will need to make 12 identical elements and attach them to the felt base in the form of two connected triangles.

Between them, place a central brooch with shiny rhinestones and a beautiful bow can be installed on an elastic band.

Craft for a beam

A beautiful elastic band for a daughter to put on a hair bun is made from different elements combined in one composition. These are white flowers in kanzashi technique, and large multi-layered details of contrasting colors. Arrange the assembled elements symmetrically, leaving room for a large bow.

The elastic band looks very impressive due to the combination of different types of petals and fabrics, but all the details look harmoniously together. Beads are selected as additional elements of blue color and large rhinestones.

As you can see, it is not difficult to make a hair band with your own hands from ribbons and fabric. The photographs presented in the article will make it easier to bring the described work to life. Can be mixed and matched different types parts in one product. The main thing is to choose fabrics and decorative elements that look harmonious together, then the finished elastic will turn out beautiful and tasteful. Good luck!

Hi all! My friends, although it is not spring yet on the street, the time is not far off when we will all walk around without hats. It is worth taking care in advance of how your little head will look, especially if you have a very long hair. That is why today we will make hair ties with our own hands!

We will move, so to speak, from the most elementary to something more complicated. In any case, you will definitely cope with all types of these rubber bands, because I will describe in detail how to make each of them.

In fact, there is simply an incredibly huge number of ideas for creating rubber bands (and not only). And almost every one of them can be realized with the help of simple manipulations. In general, I will show you a lot of hair accessories. Sit back, I'll open the door for you to the amazing (actually!) world of hair accessories (no matter how strange it may sound :))

Before you get started, take a look here. Come back when inspired :)

Scrunchie base or the simplest model

In order to make the base, you will need first of all:

  • underwear or just a thin elastic band (15-20 cm);
  • a piece of fabric (the length is about 2-3 times greater than the length of the elastic band, the width is arbitrary);
  • threads in the color of the fabric;
  • needle;
  • pin;
  • scissors.

Take the prepared piece of fabric, fold it in half lengthwise, sew along the edge. Then fold the stitched piece with the holes facing each other and sew along the edge, leaving an opening to turn inside out. Turn out the workpiece.

Now insert the rubber band. Tie it up, sew up the hole. That's all. Such a model can be used as an independent product or as a basis for a more sophisticated elastic band.

DIY hair bands: master classes and photos

How many rubber bands can be made, you simply cannot imagine! Now let's look at the options for elastic bands that can be made without even having serious knowledge in the art of sewing.

Four Variations

To plunge into creativity right away, I suggest you look at these four options for rubber bands. One way or another, you can find each of them in my articles about homemade gifts. At the end of the article, I just give links to those master classes.

In short: bows are made with multiple folds. In the first case, several ribbons are folded, and in the second, the folds are formed from one strip. The flowers are assembled from a heavily gathered ribbon glued to a base circle. In the latter case, a bow is also placed on top.

Here is another version of the bow:

Beautiful and fashionable

I see this model very often now. Want to be the center of attention? Then make this beautiful and catchy hair band. Prepare a piece of fabric, wire, warp and thread with scissors.

Cut out two ovals from the fabric, which are sewn together along the edge, leaving a hole. Put a wire in there. Place the future bow in an elastic band and tie.

elegant

It is not a shame to wear such an accessory for the evening. For it, prepare the base, shiny (optional) yarn, various kinds of beads and a crochet hook (although if the yarn is thick enough, you can handle it with your hands).

The most important thing here is how to tie the base. I don’t know what this type of strapping is called correctly, but it reminded me of a voluminous buttonhole stitch. In the course of weaving, gradually add beads (this can be done later by pulling a thread through the elastic band, gradually stringing them on it).

Children's rubber bands for little girls

A five-leaf flower can be created by a simple operation: take a circle, sweep it along the edge, pull it together and stuff it. At the end, sew up and make a few tightenings from the center.

Such flowers are very fond of attaching to bandages for newborns and, in general, for small children. Take some laps different size, make cuts along the edge of them and burn them. It remains only to fasten in the center with a bead.

Button happiness

Are there a few original buttons that are definitely not useful for clothes, but do not give rest to your creativity? Then let them go! Everything is as easy as shelling pears: take an elastic band, a button and sew one to the other. If the buttons are small and the base is wide, then you can simply make a button decoration.

All sorts of additional decorations are welcome: ribbons, rhinestones, etc.

Lace elastic

An elastic band can be sewn in the same way as the basis for an elastic band, but with one difference: after stitching, the woven blank does not turn out. With the help of lace, a very light and playful look is obtained.

The second option is with lace: this time only a flower is made from this wonderful material, and not the entire elastic band. To do this, it is enough to pick up the lace and sew it in the center, the rest is a matter of decor.

Elastic band "Bow"

An elastic band with a bow can be sewn from absolutely any fabric! I decided to experiment with fur

Below I decided to show you on the diagram how I made the bow. First, you make the base for the elastic band, and then for the bow, take a wide strip of fabric, sew it in half (as well as for the base).

Then sew the ends of the bow, folding the workpiece in half again. Turn the elastic inside out and tie it in the center with a strip of fabric.

It turns out this cuteness:

From the usual cotton fabric will result in the following:

Rubber " Bunny ears»

Somehow I wandered into free master class within the framework of the BiblioTime project (told about it). The topic of the handicraft meeting was rubber bands. But if everyone decorated the cut with beads, then I decided to excel, remembering the “eared” specimens.

Unfortunately, I don’t have photos of that product, but I can tell you about the creation of an elastic band with ears

To make such an elastic band, you will need a pattern:

Again, you need a base for the gum. The ears are tied with a knot around her and a romantic and girlishly gentle image is obtained. What you need for spring

Elastic band "Jack" ("Halloween")

All girls whose curls are longer than with a “boy haircut” like to go with hairstyles more or less often, and here you can’t do without rubber bands.

  2. On one side, cut along the entire length of the strip according to the fringe principle - these will be the petals.
  3. Take a needle and thread and collect the entire strip on the thread from the side where there are no cuts.
  4. Tighten it so that you get a circle with petals on the outside.
  5. Tie the thread and sew the edges of the fabric.
  6. In the center, you can insert another of the same strip of this or any other color, or decorate with a bead of a suitable size.

The simplest do-it-yourself velvet gum

A wide velvet elastic band always looks very luxurious, and making it as easy as shelling pears:

  1. Take 1 or 2 pieces of velvet fabric of any color. If you took 2 segments, cut out 2 rectangular parts of the same size from them and sew.
  2. The width of the rectangles is the width of the decoration, the larger it is, the more magnificent the decoration will be, the length is 25-40 cm, so that you can arrange beautiful assemblies.
  3. Pass a strong elastic thread inside, which will gather the fabric in waves and hold the bundle of curls well, and tie it.
  4. Sew up the hole.
  5. Straighten the decoration.

Important! This option is perfect for everyday wear. If you make the decoration itself less lush and wide, you can additionally decorate it, for example, with a bow. To do this, after sewing the base, cut out a rectangle of velvet, felt or leather. The length of the rectangle is the length of the bow. Gather the part in the center so that folds form on both sides and, in this form, fasten with a rivet on an elastic band.

“Flower of satin ribbons”

This decoration is more suitable for girls and will become a wonderful gift or holiday accessory. To understand how to make such a hair band with your own hands, read the instructions below:

  4. Do the same with the ribbons of the second color.
  5. Glue one flower to another, and in the middle - a button.
  6. On the back of the flower, glue a clip or elastic band that will hold the bundle of strands well.

  4. Wait until it dries, and then glue an elastic band to the plastic on the back, into which you will collect your curls.

Important! If you have time and desire to tinker a little longer, you can cut the plastic itself not with a rectangle, but in the form of a specific figure - a bunny, a cat, a flower, etc.

Stylish elastic band

Leather jewelry looks very solid and stylish when the elastic band covers the hair bundle in several circles. If you just take a strip of skin, it will slide off, while causing constant inconvenience.

New is well forgotten old. Rubber bands are becoming more and more popular. It turns out that sewing them is very simple, you just need to carefully follow each step in the instructions.

Prepare the following materials:

  • a blank in the form of a simple rubber band;
  • a strip of fabric measuring 90 cm by 10 cm;
  • needle and thread to match the material.

Progress:

  • Fold the piece of fabric lengthwise, right side inward. Take the rubber band in your hands. Grasp the workpiece from the inside with the ends of the material.
  • Attach the thread to one of the corners of the strip. Start sewing two opposite cuts, making small stitches at the same time.
  • Sew the entire piece of fabric in this way.
  • For convenience, wrap the strip in folds along the inside of the elastic band.
  • When you have completely sewn the edges of the fabric, secure the thread with a knot.
  • Thread through thumb under the material.
  • Gradually turn the fabric right side out. At the same time, help yourself with your fingers, but do not pull the workpiece sharply, as the seam may disperse.
  • You will get such a base for gum.
  • Wrap the edges of the cuts inward and sew with a blind seam.
  • That's all, the rubber band for hair from the material is ready!

Another easy material to work with is tape. They have processed edges, which means that the fabric will not disperse along the threads.

Prepare:

  • satin ribbons different widths;
  • scissors and thick thread;
  • decor in the form of a button;
  • candle or lighter;
  • glue gun;
  • regular gum.

Stages of work:

  • Cut the widest ribbon to a length of 45 cm. Cut the ribbon at an oblique angle. Now cut each next tape 2 cm shorter. In total, you need to prepare 5 elastic bands.

Advice. To prevent the cuts of the tapes from fraying, process them with a fire or a soldering iron.

  • Gather the ribbons together. Arrange them as the width of the fabric decreases. So you will have the widest at the bottom, and the narrowest at the top. Visually mark the middle along the longest strip and put the thread.

Advice. If there is no twine in the color of the ribbons, then use the narrowest ribbon.

  • Pull the tapes tight. Tie the thread tightly into several knots.
  • Turn the workpiece over to the back, pull the thread and tie the elastic to the central part of the ribbons.
  • Glue decor on top. Don't use it too much big size, as it will look out of place on hanging ribbons.

Volumetric hair bands will turn out if they are knitted from thick threads. To create such an original elastic band, you only need a hook and yarn.

  • Make the first loop on the thread. To do this, thread the thread through the loop and tighten it.
  • Cast on 12 air loops. They will serve as the basis for the entire knitting.
  • Pass a braid of thread through the elastic and connect its ends with a simple column.
  • dial three air loops, then connect with the main part. Continue tying the elastic with columns. You can choose any other crochet pattern that is convenient for you.
  • The first row of work should be done in a circle. In this case, tie the last column together with the first.
  • Tie an elastic band along the entire length in a similar way.
  • Finish work when knit to the first row. Tie the edges together, make a knot and cut the thread.
  • No one will have such a rubber band!

If you do not know how to knit or sew, then the following instructions for creating hair ties are just for you. The basis for decoration will be chenille wire. It is often used to decorate bouquets.

  • fluffy pink and green wire;
  • workpiece - gum.

Master Class:

  • Take six pink blanks. Pass them through the elastic, gather them together.
  • In the central part of the wire, make one turn around the axis. So you fix the decor on the elastic.
  • Now begin to bend the ends of the wire in a spiral.
  • Twist it all the way to the center of the knot.
  • Prepare all other parts in this way. Twist the wire gradually and the one that is located nearby.

Before you make your own scrunchie, think about what color ribbons you will need so that the product is in harmony with clothes and accessories. To make such a beautiful bow, as in the photo below, you need to buy a wide and narrow ribbon of light chocolate color and white organza. To connect all the layers of the craft, a beige button was used, on which you can glue a bright crown with rhinestones.

Begin work on a wide ribbon. Do not cut off the segment immediately, so as not to be mistaken. It is better to first fold the bow, consisting of several turns, leaving small beveled edges at the beginning of the work and at the end. Melt them immediately so that the cut sides look neat and the threads do not fall off when using an elastic band. At the central point, make a few stitches with threads matched to match, thereby fixing the bow.

The next step is to pick up a wide strip of organza, folded in half. To do this, stepping back a little from the edge, stitch the entire length of the fabric with stitches, tighten the thread and sew to the bottom tape. Lastly, a thin ribbon bent with eyelets is attached, and all layers are connected with a decorated button.

Before you make a beautiful scrunchie as in the photo below, pick up a wide and thin ribbon in white and medium width with a contrasting pattern. The central holder of all layers is a bright red heart.

The long ends are left only on a thin ribbon located on top of two bows. 3 beads are strung on each hanging edge, matched in the same color scheme as the ribbons. The edges are tied into tight knots so that the beads do not fall off when moving.

How to make small hair ties so that they look spectacular? The kanzashi technique will help. This is the manufacture of beautiful floral elements from simple satin ribbons. Flowers consist of 5 identical petals (two white and three red) and two green ribbon leaves. Let's see how to make such elements.

To create a petal, you need to cut squares of white and red. Then each folds in half diagonally. Then a couple of folds are made on each side, collecting the edges in the center. It is most convenient to use tweezers to hold the tissue together. Then trim the lower edge with scissors and melt with a lighter, pressing all the layers with tweezers.

Now let's look at how to make bow-shaped hair ties from a ribbon. You will need a base to place the finished petals. It is most convenient to cut it out of a sheet of felt, matched to the color of the satin ribbon. You already know how to make petals using the kanzashi technique. To make this hair band, you will need to make 12 identical elements and attach them to the felt base in the form of two connected triangles.

Between them, place a central brooch with shiny rhinestones and a beautiful bow can be installed on an elastic band.

The simplest do-it-yourself velvet gum

  3. Pass a strong elastic thread inside, which will gather the fabric in waves and hold the bundle of curls well, and tie it.
