Step 1: Find your cutest ribbon - the wider the better and cut it at 26 inches. You might want to measure your child before cutting, leaving a good three inches hanging around the back of the neck.
Step 3: Place the band around the bottom two inches of your ribbon. You will be able to tighten or loosen the headband when styling it,
Step 4: Put a small amount of fray liquid at the end of each ribbon. They will fray if you do not do this.
The headband can be tightened by pulling either side of the ribbon ends at the back of the neck. This allows for a comfy fit and the ability to loosen it when needed. They stay in all day, at least for my girls they did! My own personal advice would be to use this for older girls, so there is no risk for choking.

Hi Michelle
You have found a fantastic solution to keep headbands in place.
The girls look gorgeous in their spotty, mummy made headbands.
Oh my word--I am obviously not a Nancy Drew because it took me this long to find you.
I didn't realize you had changed your blog to a different address. I have been clicking over to your she-called-me address and I just thought you had gone private.
But look--here you are! Yay!
I made my blog private, but I'm pretty sure I sent you an invite. If not email me. brianwendi@msn.com
Oh how I love polka dots. I think everything is cuter once you add polka dots. Which means, I must now go out and buy some ribbon that looks exactly like the ribbon on your girls and make Aimee some headbands.
Very creative solution, by the way.
Great idea! Thanks..borrowed it yesterday for Danica and it looked really cute.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing! Hope you and all the little ones are doing well!
that simple???? I love love headbands, but feel I need more head to hold them! They look adorable.!
What a great idea, I love it and will try it as soon as I buy some ribbon.
