Making a bandage or a rim with your own hands is quite simple. Laconic or decorated with flowers, cotton, leather, knitted: in our review - five workshops on making jewelry for hair.
1. Double-sided fabric hair band: workshop

The “trick” of such a bandage is that when using different fabrics, it turns out to be two-sided, and it can be worn as two different dressings. The main thing is to carefully process all the seams and remove the ends of the threads so that the work from all sides looks neat.
You will need:
- 2 or more types of fabric for dressing (it is better to choose a fabric of similar quality and density, with different matching colors);
- elastic tape;
- scissors;
- threads;
- sewing machine;
- lace and safety pin.
1. Measure the circumference of the head and build a pattern. Keep in mind that the back of the dressing will be gathered on an elastic band.

2. Add a centimeter for allowances for the seams and cut 4 parts of the dressing from different fabrics.

3. Fold the parts with the sides inward and stitch as shown in the photo.

5. Iron the inverted back part of the dressing and stitch it on both long sides, backing off about 0.7 cm.

6. Determine the length of the elastic that you need. Thread the elastic into the back of the dressing. Sew several times on one side. Assemble the part on an elastic band and fasten it on the other side in the same way.

In fact, this is a slightly lightened version of the dressing from the previous master class. The difference here is that you need a wider elastic band (at least 2 cm wide). An elastic band with some decor will look good (colored, with gold or silver thread and so on).
You will need:
- the cloth;
- colored elastic tape of medium width (2-3 cm);
- scissors;
- threads;
- pins;
- sewing machine.
1. Decide on the length and width of the future dressing. Build a pattern - you need one detail (you can focus on the diagram from master class 1). Cut out two identical details of the bandage, not forgetting the seam allowances.

Such a bandage-bezel can be made from both genuine and artificial leather. In this case, the material from the old handbag was used - perhaps you put in an unnecessary piece of leather or a strap.
You will need:
- artificial or genuine leather;
- elastic tape (preferably in skin color);
- strong glue;
- scissors;
- sewing machine;
- threads.
1. Cut out the details of the skin in the form of two stripes.

How to make a flower from fabric: a very easy way

Depending on the fabric you have chosen, the bandage may turn out to be gentle and romantic, or a bright and noticeable accessory. The raw edges of the fabric will give the work a slight sloppiness and originality.
You will need:
- dense fabric for the base of the dressing;
- Thin fabric for decoration (chiffon, silk);
- a few beads;
- a pair of regular rubber bands for hair;
- tailor pins;
- scissors;
- needle and thread;
- sewing machine.
1. Decide on the length and width of the dressing. Cut the base part in an oblique.

2. Detail for the decor is made of thin fabric, also oblique. It needs to be made one and a half times wider and longer than the base part. When laying folds, pin the decor detail to the base with pins, as shown in the photo. Pay attention to the area without folds: leave it where you plan to place the fabric flower.

3. Sew the decor detail to the base as shown in the photo.
