Twist Wire Headband Sewing Tutorial

Cute summer hair is easy with a twist wire headband like this.  Headed to the beach?  To the park?  Just running errands around town?  Pull your hair back in a twist wire headband and you’ve got fun summer hair with no fuss.  There’s no need to tie a knot – just twist the ends of the headband around each other and the wires inside will hold it in place.  It’s also great for holding your hair up in a bun.  Perfect for hot summer days when you want to keep your hair off your neck!

Petro at Easy Peasy Creative shows how you can sew a twist wire headband.  It’s a quick little project you can sew in about 30 minutes.  Though I have a feeling that once you sew one, you’ll want to sew a bunch!  And why not?  Because if one cute headband is good, a stack of them is even better!  And then you can have one to match any outfit.  Head to Easy Peasy Creative for the twist wire headband sewing tutorial.

Are you looking for more things to sew for easy summer style?  Here are some suggestions:

This kimono cardigan is easy to make and dresses up even the most casual of outfits!  It also makes a great swim coverup if you’re headed to the beach or pool.  It takes just a few seams and there’s no pattern required.  Use lightweight, flowy fabrics to create a beautiful drape.  Go to Simple Simon & Co for an easy sewing tutorial. 

Take a basic t-shirt pattern and use it to sew a beautiful maxi dress!  It’s Always Autumn has a tutorial showing how.  Maxi dresses are the perfect summer dress.  Just throw on a maxi dress with some cute sandals and you’ve got a complete summer outfit.  It doesn’t get easier than that!
