DIY Rapunzel Braid Party Favors

I had to make 14 braids, and wasn’t sure how much yarn I needed. I ended up using one and a half one pound yarn skeins. I started off by putting two dining room chairs together and began wrapping the yarn around.

Once I was happy with the thickness, I pulled off the yarn, cut the loops on one end, and tied the top with a rubber band. We ended up using loom rubber bands which worked really well.

I braided each one and then tied the ends with another small rubber band.

Using a hot glue gun, I glued on the flowers, five on each braid. For the clip, I simply used metal ones and attached it to the yarn through the clip (no glue). This worked well, putting them on and taking them off the girl’s hair.
