You can make a stylish hair bun in just minutes with scrap fabric, craft wire, and a few simple tools! In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to sew two different bun maker styles using the same steps. It’s a quick, fun project and a great alternative to ponytails or large clips.

What You’ll Learn

• Step-by-step sewing guide for a fabric hair bun maker
