How to repurpose socks into a winter headband

The season is upon us, so we are kicking it into high gear, DIYing gifts + wrapping presents galore! We teamed up with JCPenney to turn three socks into a headband to keep your ears warm.

Gather your supplies. Use a pair of socks and then a single sock that coordinates. You can mix and match textures, just make sure the colors are cohesive.

Take your textured sock and cut at the low ankle so that it forms a tube.

This portion will be referred to as the tube sock. Set aside. (Feel free to trim off any excess ornamentation.)

Grab your patterned socks and make an X.

Then, fold each sock in half so that they crossover each other and the top and toe meet.

Snip off the tip of the toe so that it is even with the top end of the sock.

Tuck the toe and the tip portion of one patterned sock into one end of the tube and sew it together. Repeat on the other side with the second patterned sock.

Sport your new DIY sock headband that will keep you warm and toasty all winter long.
