My daughter’s headbands and hair ties have been stored in a dresser drawer without any sort of organization or structure. If you have read my previous posts, you’ll know that this kind of disorganization drives me a bit crazy! (Well more crazy than I usually am anyways! :-P)

So this weekend I decided to do something about it. I had some spare wood parts and boards that I have been waiting to use on something, and this past weekend I finally determined what that something should be! Here is what I created:

For full detailed instructions and more pictures, please see my blog at the link at the bottom of the post.

First, I gathered two 5×7 oval wood craft boards that I had purchased at Hobby Lobby.

Next, I cut two 1×2 boards to length. Using wood glue and finish nails, I attached the two 1×2 boards on top of each end of one of the oval 5×7 wood boards.

I then attached the second 5×7 oval wood board to the top of the two 1×2 boards using wood glue and finish nails.

I then glued a small wood finial to the center of the top oval 5×7 board.

I added two trim pieces to the front and back of the hair tie holder (directly across from one another) and attached those to the 1x3 boards.

I then sanded and painted the holder and added the small screw-in hooks to the front, back, and sides of the hair tie holder. Here is the finished project:
