A Party For Your Hair

A fun, easy, five minute project for us gals young and old!
Grab some of these elastic headbands from your hair accessories drawer.  I bought mine from the Dollar Tree.
I love yoyos!  I found three bags of them at a yard sale for a $1.00 per bag and that started my obsession.  They are also really easy to make.  I have a yoyo maker which makes the process even easier.  If you don’t love yoyos as much as I do, look around your house and see what you can come up with.  I have used flowers, pins, buttons, rosettes, flowers cut from a shirt, pom poms, and even a dollie for this project.



Glue yoyo to the elastic band with a hot glue gun.  I used a piece of felt to give it a finished look.
Ok this is a lot trickier than it looks.  It is HARD to get a picture of yourself, plus you feel like a complete idiot.

Maybe this a better shot. 

Love these vintage yoyos!  I am always looking for yoyos so if you come across and don’t want them for yourself please let me know!

    I had no idea what a vintage yoyo was until now. I would have guessed a toy yoyo before seeing these, lol!

    They are absolutely darling, now I will be on the hunt for yoyos… fabric ones that is :)

    I love how you add the buttons and felt backing for a finished look.

    Thank you for the inspiration!
