DIY: Felt Hair Band with Crafter’s Ink

Hello All! Vishu here today to share this quick tutorial on how to make a DIY Felt Hair Band using Ann Butler Designs.

 

Firstly, Happy New Year to all you crafty people though I still cannot believe its 2016. This project was really quick to put together. I love making wearable crafts for my daughter and wanted to start the new year with a fun project for her. This month we had to use fabric as a theme for our projects. See below to for the products and instructions to make this DIY Felt Hair Band using Ann Butler Designs crafter’s ink.

Products used:

• Ann Butler Designs ColorBox Crafter’s Ink  – Berry,  Limelight, Tangelo
• Ann Butler Designs Earth Safe Finish Iridescents Powders – Leaf, Rose
• White Felt sheet

Instructions:

1. First I cut the white felt fabric into flower shapes. The more depth you want to give your project the more layers you want to cut.
2. Then cut a couple of leafs out of felt fabric
3. Next I colored the flower petals with Ann Butler Designs Crafter’s ink in Tangelo and Berry, I absolutely love these inks they are so versatile and work on different mediums
4. I drew veins on the leaves using Colorbox bark ink
5. Then color the leaves with Ann Butler Designs Crafter’s ink in Limelight
6. I then assembled the flower using hot glue.
7. Used a strip of felt and rolled it to get the flower center
8. Using Earth Safe Finishes Iridescent powders colored the top flower layer with rose and the flower center using the Leaf.
9. Finally glue hair band to the flower and viola!

 

I think this was a successful project as my daughter loved and would not take it off :). Hope you will also try these and create tons DIY Felt Hair Band using Ann Butler Designs.
