Valentine Pom Pom Headband Craft

DIY Easy Valentine Headband Craft with Pom Poms

easy valentine pom pom headband craft

It’s fun to craft a DIY Valentine pom pom headband and to wear the hair accessory for the holiday and beyond.

This is a festive craft project that is great for kids or adults to do on their own or as a group activity.

The red, pink and white sparkle pom pom headband is easy to make and no special skills are required.

Make yours exactly like mine or creatively arrange your pom poms however you’d like.

Headbands

Any plastic headband will do, when you are making a Valentine pom pom headband.

You are not completely covering the headband, so you’ll want to choose a color that will look nice with the pom poms.

Mine is pink with a braided texture, but white, red or black with a smooth surface would be great, too.

If you are making headbands as a group activity, you can buy headbands in bulk that are made for crafting.

These are fine for a craft activity with kids.

However, I like using a regular headband from the hair accessories section.

You can still get multipacks, but the quality is generally better.

Red, White and Pink Glitter Pom Poms

Pom poms are easy for people of all skill levels to use, so this craft will work for small children, mom’s craft night or anything in between.

I used small glitter pom poms that have sparkle tinsel in them, so they look festive.

The 1/2″ size pom poms is good to fit for my narrow headband, but you can use larger pom poms if you’d like.

Before gluing the pom poms to the headband, arrange them in order to get an idea of how many you need and how you want to organize the colors.

Glue

Regular white school glue that dries clear is ok for this as a craft that you or your child may wear just for the holiday.

However, waterproof craft glue is a better choice for something that lasts better.

Just make sure you choose one that dries clear to keep your festive headband looking nice.

Tweezers

Tweezers are not required to make this headband, but they make it easier and less messy.

Pointed tweezers can be used to pick up each pom pom and glue it into position.

There was zero mess, when I made my headband using tweezers as I glued the pom poms to the headband.

You can make the craft without tweezers, but may end up with some glue that needs to be cleaned up.

Supplies / Materials

Plastic Headband
Red, White and Pink Glitter Pom Poms
School Glue or Waterproof Clear Drying Craft Glue

Tools/Equipment

Small Dish or Plate
Tweezers (optional)

Instructions

1) Plan the pom pom placement in whatever order looks good to you. The pom poms will stop just above the ears instead of continuing all the way to the ends.

2) Pour some glue onto a plate or into a small dish.

3) Hold the headband in one hand. Start with the pom pom at the center of your design. Use the tweezers to pick up the pom pom, dip it into the glue and position it on the headband. Repeat with the other pom poms down each side.

4) Let glue thoroughly dry. Then the Valentine headband is ready to wear.
