Flowers in my hair (upcycled headband)

Do you remember the t-shirt I refashioned for me some weeks ago?

It is probably my favourite t-shirt for this summer, together with the handmade blue&white striped t-shirt.



After refashioning, I saved a sleeve non involved in the making of the new tee. It was a 3/4 sleeve, wide enough to make something else (you know, I'm crazy for saving fabric scraps of all dimensions!).

Before leaving the home for our holiday I thought the sleeve was perfect to make a handband to wear on te beach.

So I made it :)

 

This is the sleeve (I cut it in 2 parts to sew the headband):

 

 

And this is the finished headband:

The headband is soft, confy and fresh like the t-shirt and I'm wearing it a lot at home, too. I think headbands are a good idea to use some scraps of knitted fabrics we save after making clothes and probably I'll add some of them to my shop. Guess if it a good idea or not...
