Effortless Square Scrunchie Magic: Your 5-Minute Mood-Booster DIY

Hey gorgeous! 🌸 Let’s talk about the easiest self-care hack you’ll try today – making a square fabric scrunchie so simple, you’ll laugh at how Instagram-worthy it turns out. No fancy skills, no overthinking – just pure crafty joy!

Why You’ll Obsess Over This Tutorial

  •  Faster than your latte order: Seriously, 5 minutes = new hair accessory.
  • 🎁 Customizable serotonin: Pick fabrics that scream your vibe!

Let’s Get This Party Started!

1. Grab & Cut

  • Two 9.8"x9.8" fabric squares
  • From one corner: Measure 1.5", draw a quarter-circle, snip! ✂️

2. Optional Glam Touch
Sew lace on a corner if you’re feeling ~fancy~ (or skip guilt-free – it’s cute either way!).

3. Fabric Sandwich Time

  • Stack fabrics right sides kissing.
  • Sew around the edges – but leave a 1.25" gap (your secret escape route).

4. Origami-ish Trick
Flip two corners out, tuck them into their opposite buddies. Channel your inner zen while rolling inner layers – sew just the outer edges.

5. Elastic Magic

  • Flip it all through the gap (ta-da, it’s becoming real!).
  • Thread elastic through (*pro tip: length = your wrist size in inches*). Knot it like you mean it!

6. Mic Drop Moment
Stitch the gap shut. Add a bow? Glitter? Go nuts – this is your masterpiece!
