Thin Elastic For Headbands?

I am looking for thin elastic for some ribbon flowers I made for DD and my niece. I looked at JoAnn's and they didn't have much of a selection. Can anyone tell me where I can buy it in bulk and in various colors?

 

Here is what the flowers look like:

Re: Thin Elastic For Headbands?

  • Try etsy. Do a search for 1/4" elastic I think you can get a few yards for $3.

  • I just use regular headbands. Cut them open, trim them to the size you want and sew them back together. Use that part as the part you glue to the back of the flower and then reinforce with either some glue covering the elastic or a piece of felt glued to the bottom of the flower, making a flower-headband-felt sandwich.
