Where should you start?
The idea of getting an original and beautiful accessory on your head can be inspired by inspiration or arise when you look at a picture in a fashion magazine or a photo of your girlfriend. Before embarking on the construction of the bandage, you should:
- Adequately assess your strength and creativity. For those who are not particularly friendly with the art world, it is better to select detailed descriptions for making an accessory in the simplest ways, or ask for help from a needlewoman who will make an accessory to order. Often, manual work is very painstaking, and not everyone has the patience for this.
- Choose a suitable material for the base of the bandage - whether it will be sewn or knitted and from what. The imagination of handmade masters is limitless, which allows you to choose the constituent bases from a huge number of materials.
- In addition, you should carefully consider the decor - its appearance and components should reflect the internal state of the hostess, without taking her out of her comfort zone. The decoration of the headband should also fit its purpose. If the accessory is for special occasions or photo shoots, then the decor can be abundant and bright, and for sports headbands any decoration may be superfluous.
- For clarity, it is recommended to create a sketch of the future product, which will help to adhere to the intended dimensions and other details when working.
- And finally, you should make a list of all the necessary tools and parts to create an accessory, so as not to forget anything in the store. Do not forget about the methods of fixing the decor: for sewing on beads you need threads with a needle, for rhinestones - glue.

Sewing master class
Let's take a closer look at the ways to create the most popular and fashionable head jewelry:
- Turban embellished with rhinestones in mixed materials. To do this, you will need: two pieces of fabric 65 cm long and 30 cm wide (knitwear and stretching satin will be an excellent combination), threads, scissors, pins, rhinestones for decoration. First you need to sew two bandages from the fabric taken. Fold each cut in half with the right side inward and sew the product along the length, leaving small allowances. Then iron the seam. After that, stretch one end of the bandage inside to the other end and sew them, leaving a small distance for turning. Then turn out the product and sew up the left area. After that, lay out the two sewn elements in the form of circles and thread one part into another. It turns out that the two circles joined together and formed a turban. The interweaving of the two parts should be fixed manually with threads, and the front part of the bandage should be decorated with rhinestones.

According to the principle of the previous model, it is necessary to sew a bandage 32 cm wide and 3 cm longer than the head circumference. Do not sew up the small opening for turning inside out and insert the elastic so that the bandage gathers a little. Sew the tape and seam of the bandage. As a jumper, take a piece of fabric 11 x 9 cm, and for bows - 2 pieces 24 x 16 and 28 x 16 cm. For three elements, cut out doubles from non-woven fabric. Fold all parts in half with the right side inward and sew separately, leaving allowances. Turn out all the details, fold the jumper in half and close the seam on the bandage. Sew on the inside of the product. Fold the bow blanks in width, gather on one side and sew. Then fold the resulting elements obliquely together and sew to the inside in the area of the lintel.
