Easy enough to do, our brains are funny like that

Sorry if this is more detail than you need, but I never know what may be useful for folks!

I took a plain headband and measured it then made a tube out of fabric to cover it and then sewed up the ends.

For the star, I cut out two star shaped pieces of gold spandex fabric, sewed it together except for a small hole so I could add some polyfill and then slipstitched the hole shut.

For the beaded parts, I bought some star beads and added them to eye pins to make them into charms. Then I just made strands of beads using stretchy cord, added a crimp bead, and attached the charms. Then I added another crimp bead to the tops of the strands and attached them to a ring. I then sewed the ring to the back of the star with a curved embroidery needle. I also sewed down the strands to the star in some places so that they would hang out more toward the side instead of straight down.

Then I sewed together a long rectangle out of the purple fabric, gathered it, folded it in half and sewed it to the gold star, again with the curved needle. Once that was done, I just hotglued the whole thing to the top of the headband.
