Step 1

Gather the following material:

I have include a list of available products for your convenience:

a piece of soft craft felt (purple)
a thick plain plastic headband
a piece of broken compact disc
hot gluea pair of scissor

Step 2

Begin by covering the plastic headband with your chosen color of craft felt. Spread a thin layer of hot glue along the outer part of the headband and carefully press the felt onto it. Ensure the felt completely wraps around the headband for a neat finish.

Step 3

Take the broken compact disc and cut it into small, random pieces. These pieces will be used to decorate the headband, so they don’t need to be uniform. Just make sure they’re small enough to fit comfortably on the headband surface.

Step 5

Now, start gluing the CD pieces onto the felt-covered headband. Apply a small dab of hot glue to the back of each piece and press it firmly onto the headband. Arrange the pieces randomly or create a pattern as you like.

Step 6

Continue attaching CD pieces until the entire surface of the headband is covered. Try to space the pieces closely to avoid gaps. Once all pieces are in place, allow the glue to dry thoroughly. This might take a few minutes, ensuring everything is well-set.

Step 7

Before wearing your new headband, give it a final polish. Wipe the CD pieces with a soft flannel or smooth cloth to enhance their shine. This step will help your headband stand out and catch the light beautifully.

Step 8

Your fashionable CD headband is ready to wear! It's perfect for adding a bit of sparkle to any outfit and is sure to turn heads.
