Whether you want to save money or add a personal touch to your hair accessory collection, making your own hair ties is a fun and creative project. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the process of creating stylish hair circles that are easy to make and perfect for any occasion.

Materials You’ll Need

  • Elastic cord (¼ inch wide)
  • Fabric of your choice
  • Scissors
  • Measuring tape
  • Sewing pins
  • Sewing machine or needle and thread

Step 1: Measure and Cut

Start by measuring the desired length for your hair ties. A standard measurement is around 9 inches, but you can adjust it based on your preference. Once measured, cut the elastic cord and fabric into strips of the same length.

Step 2: Prepare the Fabric

Lay the fabric strips flat and fold them in half lengthwise, ensuring the patterned side is facing inward. Use sewing pins to secure the fabric in place, leaving a small section open for turning the fabric right side out once sewn.

Step 3: Sew the Fabric

Using a sewing machine or needle and thread, sew along the open edge of the fabric strips, making sure to backstitch at the beginning and end. Remove the pins as you sew, but remember to leave the small opening mentioned earlier. Trim any excess fabric.

Step 4: Turn and Finish

Carefully turn the fabric right side out through the small opening. You can use a blunt object, such as the end of a paintbrush, to help push out the corners and achieve a clean finish. Iron the fabric to remove any wrinkles.

Step 5: Insert the Elastic Cord

Attach a safety pin to one end of the elastic cord and guide it through the opening in the fabric, making sure to go all the way to the other end. Remove the safety pin and overlap the ends of the elastic cord by about an inch. Secure them together with a few stitches to create a loop.

Step 6: Stitch the Opening

With the elastic cord securely in place, hand stitch or use your sewing machine to close the small opening in the fabric. Make sure the stitches are tight to avoid any unraveling.

Step 7: Style and Enjoy

Now that your hair tie is complete, it’s time to show off your creativity and style! Experiment with different fabrics, patterns, and colors to create hair circles that match your outfits or reflect your personal taste. Enjoy the satisfaction of wearing a hair tie you made yourself.

By following these simple steps, you can make your own stylish hair ties in no time. They also make great personalized gifts for friends and loved ones. So gather your materials and get ready to unleash your creativity with this DIY hair accessory project!
