Let's begin with all the supplies needed: an empty oatmeal container, fabric(Little Miss is all about hot pink and zebra so this was her fabric of choice), mod podge, foam brush, ribbon and a glue gun!!
First you will want to cut a piece of fabric, I did mine a rough cut like in the tutorial. If I had a mat and rotary cutter I probably would have make it more precise, but this worked just fine for me too! Then just take some mod podge and cover a big section of the container.
Next you will want to just wrap the fabric tightly around the container, if there are any bumps smooth them out.
Then you will just fold the remaining fabric inside the container and under as well!
After you are finished set aside to dryCut another fabric square for the lid and cover with the mod podge. Wrap the lid in fabric. The tutorial had to use the glue gun and wrap fabric that way. Part of me wishes that I would have done it that way to eliminate so of the mod podge soaking the fabric, but it wasn't as noticeable once it dried.
Lastly cut a piece of fun ribbon to wrap around the edge of the lid. My glue gun was taking too long to heat up for me so I just pinned it for picture purposes and then went back and glued it around the lid.
After all is complete just let it dry and you are good to go for a way fun and cute headband holder!! No more headbands scattered everywhere! You can even take off the lid and keep spare rubber bands, hair ties, ribbons, etc!! Duel purpose...even better!!
