Sweaty bands knock off

So, as you know I've  been working out.  I've exercised every day for over a week.  I've been at it hard core.  I have been running, riding my bike, doing plyos, walking the dogs, lifting weights: lots of stuff.  It is making me more motivated to do things--like finish projects.  See this post.

To help motivate myself I got some new workout clothes for the summer/fall time.  I scored a big sale at the local running store, where I got some nice Saucony and Nike stuff.  I also hit up Dick's Sporting Goods and got a couple other things.  It was a bit of a bummer that I had to buy a bigger size than I like to think myself, but I made sure I didn't buy anything that would be too big once I lose a little weight. 

In an effort to spruce up my workout attire, and keep the sweat off my face, I made some knock-off Sweaty Bands.  I love the real Sweaty Bands.  But they are pricey for what they are.  I was able to make 10 of these (some to share) for less than the price I paid for 1 Sweaty Band.  The ribbon at Hobby Lobby last week was half off.  If anyone wants one, let me know.  I've been using them, and they work almost as well as the real ones (that's the awesome thing about the Sweaty Bands--they REALLY stay put).  The elastic I found isn't as hight quality, so they might not last as long, but I can afford to replace them easily this way.

Here are my little beauties. 

I followed this tutorial on Holy Craft  It was really easy.  They take 10 min--maybe--to make.

I want one in every color!
