I don't have any little ones in my home anymore, but I bought a cute little dress for Miss M.'s birthday and I couldn't find anything I liked to go with it, I had seen this headband at a local scrap store and decided I could make it.. it was sooooo easy! So I am sharing!
Materials:
One leg of a pair of tights
One flower (or other bobble)
Ribbon
Step 1:
Fold tights so that the toe fits into the cut leg end and stitch it closed with a gather.
Step 2:
Fold over the ribbon so it creates loops on the ends, as many folds as you would like, mine have 5 on each side. Sew or hot glue the ribbon together so it doesn't fall apart.
Step 3:
Attach ribbon to flower. I have done this by sewing and with hot glue, I don't know what holds better yet.
Step 4:
Attach the flower and ribbon to the seam you made on the tights. I have sewn this and hot glued it, I don't know yet what holds up better. Make sure everything looks secure and then test it on your baby.. or in my case.. what ever poor animal is closest. (poor Tori!)

What size of tights do you typically use??
I like to use girls sz 4 roughly.. long enought that one leg will make 1 time around the babys head.
