Don't those require two or so Silken Threads to make?  Even with the discount that would tack on 9 or 18 silver (I don't remember if it's one or two) per two headbands, which means you're going to have to find some very cheap thick leather to be in the black on headbands.  However, I wouldn't be surprised if you could sell them at the auction house for more than 35 silver, allowing you to turn a profit even after thread costs.

If honored with the vendor at which one is purchasing the thread, it's around 71s profit selling two of them to a vendor (assuming no cost for the leather); not talking revenue. They vendor for a little over 44s each. If you can get stacks of thick leather in the AH for 70s or less, you're in the black while getting one attempt at a skill-up per 5 leather.

I've come across stacks in the AH for 50s each and just went nuts buying them all out, then did a "Create All" while going afk for a bit. Easy money, and a quick announcement that they're for sale at 65s each will bring at least one or two customers.
