Many people prepare costumes for Halloween in advance, but it’s easy to overlook the finer details like hairstyles.

That’s where a “Halloween headband” comes in handy.

By decorating a simple base with felt, pipe cleaners, lace, and more, you can make cute headbands like “cat ears” or “ribbons.”

Just pop one on and your costume instantly looks a level better, and it’s also perfect for those who want to enjoy Halloween casually.

Try making them with your friends or kids and have fun together!

Bunny ears are a cosplay item that can easily make anyone look cute, no matter their age.

They’re also easy to customize, so you can casually show off your personality.

To make them, attach ear frames made from wire to a store-bought wide plastic headband.

Cover the ears with felt or thick paper in your favorite color.

Here’s a little tip: using faux fur from a craft store for the ears gives them a more realistic, fluffy look.

Adding a cute ribbon or elegant lace between the ears to personalize them makes it even better.

Unicorns are an everlasting dream for girls.

Since the rise of the “yume-kawaii” (dreamy-cute) culture, unicorns have skyrocketed in popularity.

The hallmark of a unicorn headband is, of course, the single horn sprouting from the center.

For durability, I recommend making it out of clay.

The thinner the horn, the more realistic it looks; a thicker horn gives a cuter, more stylized impression.

After that, attach ears on both sides to taste, and you’re done.

You can make them with felt or leftover clay.

Adding sparkly materials to the horn and ears, or decorating the space between them with flowers, makes it even more yume-kawaii.

Lately, it seems adding a wedding veil is also trending.
