    How to Make a Scrunchie

    Trends are so funny to me. Whoever decided that hair elastics were better than scrunchies was a crazy person. When I was in middle and high school you wouldn't catch me without a scrunchie on my wrist...or in my hair! I am so excited that Scrunchies are making a comeback! This simple DIY sewing project will show you how to make a scrunchie so you can customize your own!
