Autumn Headband


Dress up a plain fabric headband with embroidered details. You can make an inexpensive item look fresh and fashionable in less than an hour. Great idea for gifts!

Materials needed: 

  • purchased fabric-covered headband
  • embellishment threads — we used Kreinik Facets in gold, Kreinik Cord 002C Gold, Very Fine #4 Braid 017HL White Gold
  • embroidery or sharp needle
  • Fray Check™, tape or touch of glue

Instructions: 

  1. We couched Kreinik Facets in the shape of a leaf. First, tape the ends of the Facets or touch with a spot of glue to keep the ends from raveling.
  2. Then lay your Facets at a starting point and couch (or tack down) with Kreinik Cord 002C Gold (a matching color). Place the Facets in the shape of a leaf and couch down as you work the shape.
  3. Add details like leaf veins with the thinner Very Fine #4 Braid thread, using a straight stitch in your desired pattern.
  4. Add beads or other thread embellishments if desired.
