Growing up with 4 sisters has it’s perks. Most of the time we are able to share our clothes, accessories and everything in between. But growing up in a family of 14 people has not only made me understand the value of the little things in life. I have learned to find the beauty in everything. I love taking something simple and making it look beautiful. Today I am going to show how I took an old oatmeal container and made it into a headband holder in 5 easy steps. If I can do this, anyone can!
Here is a short video showing you just how easy this is!
I couldn’t think of a better way to display your headbands. How do you store or display your headbands at home?
There are so many different kinds of hair accessories and most of the time I don’t know where to put them or how to organize them. At one of the beauty stores, where I purchase my supplies, I buy a tin full of Bobbi pins. Those tins are the perfect size for storing your extra Bobbi pins, hair elastics and so much more. I also love storing my “on the go” Bobbi pins in Tic-Tac container I will share that with you this week.
As you can see here, this is a great way to keep everything neatly separated and organized.
I love the size of these tins although if you can’t buy them then you can use a mint tin, they would work great as well.
I find that this is a perfect size for all of your little accessories. Although I have some other ideas for some of your bigger items like, organizing your headbands, your earing and necklaces.
With the seasons changing and the whether getting colder it is time to bust out the scarfs. Over the past few winters I have built up quite the little collection of scarfs. I use to keep them in a bin in my room until I got sick of them always being wrinkled. I don’t even remember where I got this idea from but I am so glad that I found it. Now that I have started hanging my scarfs up on hangers I will not be going back to putting them in a drawer or a bin ever again.
Here is a short video showing you just how I organize my scarfs.
I love keeping my scarfs color coordinated and where I can see them. I not only feel like they stay more organized but I also wear them more than I use to because I can actually see what I have.
I love the idea of wearing scarfs. Please don’t forgot to subscribe to my blog to get my up come posts on how to tie your scarfs and how to pair them with your outfits.
Who will agree with me that a women can not seem to get more than a few uses out of her tights before something happens to them? They always seem to snag on something or get a whole in them where they can no longer be used. I thought to myself there has to be something else I can do with these tights besides just throwing them away.
Before I knew it I ended up with an entire bag of ruined tights. I then remembered someone once telling me that you can use them for many different things including hair bands. So I decided to give it a try and I am so glad I did. I always seem to lose my hair bands and this was free to make my own. Win-Win!
Here is a short video showing you just what I did to make them.
Will someone please tell me that I am not the only person that misplaces small hair accessories? I will either lend them to someone with no intention of getting them back or I just flat out leave them in places they don’t belong and forget where I put them. Either way I find myself always buying more each time I am at the store.
Once you are all done turning your tights into hair bands you are going to need a place to put them all so you won’t lose them like I use too. I like to store mine on a Mason Jar turned upside-down. They fit on there perfect and you will never lose them.
This is a great way to keep your hair or bangs out of your face!
Do you find yourself in the same situation I was in? Do you think this will help you to be able to not only reuse your tights but save money as well? What else do you do with your old tights? I would love for you to share or even post a link.
