My first completed Pinterest project.

So I am a huge fan of fun headbands and needed to find a way to organize them in a great way that is both functional and cute. So I found this awesome pin that lead me to a blog ( http://www.joyshope.com/2008/10/headband-holder-tutorial.html ). She talked about using a oatmeal container since it was just the right size. How could I have not thought of that.... So I got my oatmeal container and found some old scrapbook paper and got to work.



After some rubber cement I couldn't quite believe how cute it was. After I was happy with my colors i attached a fun candle holder I had found to the bottom so they didn't take up too much counter space.






Then there was the test run to see if it works, I found some problems...... My headbands were slipping off the bottom, which won't really work so well. So what to do? I glued a few layers of fun grosgrain ribbon and made a bow to cover the seam. After that problem solved it now looks great.






Now that I've got this project done I can now check another pin off my list. What to do next? Stay tuned.....
