Headbands for baby girls
Every mother wants to make a little princess out of her daughter, therefore, from childhood, girls are given hairstyles with various decorative hairpins and elastic bands. However, such details usually interfere with babies and can even injure them. A delicate headband can decorate a baby... In addition, such an accessory can be made by hand.
A touching decoration
Decorative headbands are often used for children's photo shoots, creating a graceful girlish look with their help. Due to its elasticity, the accessory can be worn for about a year. The adornment will be especially useful for little owners of thick hair: with its help, you can easily remove them from the face.
A knot (or any other detail: flower, bow) is usually located in the middle of the band or on the side. Some mothers put their daughters to sleep right in them, because jewelry does not interfere at all during sleep. This is a good solution in hot weather when the room is air conditioned. The bandage will cover the ears and protect the baby from blowing.
Selection Tips
First of all, when choosing a baby bandage, you should pay attention to the material - it should be soft, elastic and pleasant to the touch, so as not to injure the delicate skin of the baby... Equally important is the absence of sharp parts that can scratch. Elements that imitate various animals (for example, hare ears, ladybug antennae) are fixed very tightly on a quality product, do not hang down and do not close the baby's eyes.
It is worth giving preference to models without seams, and if it does exist, it should be hidden inside the bandage, but not on the wrong side.
The size must be chosen just as carefully. In no case should the bandage be tight so as not to squeeze the child's head, but at the same time it should fit tightly enough.However, the soft stretchy material will ensure a comfortable wearing experience.
A headband decorated with a crown will make a little fashionista a real princess. For a thematic photo shoot, a lace model is also suitable, with flowers from foamiran or felt, elegant butterflies and berries. She will perfectly create a touching girly image and will look great in the pictures. A bow headband with a decorative element in the middle will easily emphasize the touching age of a little lady, it will look simple and at the same time cute.
Only one thing keeps the flight of designer fantasy: it is desirable that the accessory be dense and consist of several layers of material. This will additionally protect the baby from injury, even with sudden movements or turns.
You can choose from several options in different colors and designs to match them with any outfit. In addition, this set of headbands for newborns will be a great memorable gift for a young mother and her daughter.
Care
It is extremely easy to care for such fabric children's decorations: they are machine washed and dried in the fresh air. Accessories are not prone to deformation, do not fade or "shrink" after washing.
Do it yourself
Unfortunately, baby clothes (especially those presented in specialized stores) are quite expensive. But this is not a problem: you can easily create a beautiful accessory for a baby with your own hands, and the resulting jewelry will look no worse than a store one.
So, in order to make a children's headband with your own hands, you will need either a tape of any thickness (at your discretion), or an elastic band or a pair of tights. Having chosen the material, measure the circumference of the baby's head, and then cut the fabric of the desired length in the shape of a rectangle. In this case, the cut out part should be twice as wide as the final product, and its length should be one centimeter less than the girth.
Remember: when sewing, it is better to fold the material in two layers, and hide the seams inside the bandage!
Fold the resulting rectangle from the inside along the long side in half and sew or sew on a sewing machine. Then turn the tube-shaped product right out and sew the two edges together.
Another option is to sew an adornment from nylon tights for children. They are quite elastic and soft, and therefore the bandage made of them will not squeeze the small head. It is sewn using the same technology, but in this case, you can cut a rectangle 1-2 cm shorter.
You can decorate the headband with beads, rhinestones or a decorative flower. To make it, you need a thick, but soft cloth - for example, foamiran. Cut four identical circles out of the fabric of your choice. Fold the first one in half, apply a small amount of glue to the center of the fold and put a second circle on it, bent in the same way - in this way, connect all the circles, slightly pressing on the middle. The flower is ready! It can be sewn on or glued to the product.
The headband, with all its simplicity and ease of execution, will be an excellent addition to the delicate image of a little beauty, as well as a salvation in the off-season: when it gets cold outside, but it's clearly too early to put on a hat, a headband made of warm material will warm your ears and won't cause any inconvenience.
