The Non-Braided Braid

My favourite colour combination!  When wrapping these two scarves, I was left with the brown ends being much longer than the blue/brown ones.  To help even them out, I held the blue/brown ones straight, and then criss-crossed the brown ones around it, making the ends even at the bottom!  To fasten, I just wound one of the brown ends around the bottom and tied.  The brown and gold antique pin tied the wrap together perfectly.  Enjoy!

The “Rachel Imenu”

I was intruiged by Batsheva’s description of the retro “Rachel Imenu” style, so I decided to try doing a wrap that incorporated it into the style.  She was right, I did feel a bit dated (who knew that scarf wrapping had eras/trends?) but I actually got a lot of nice comments throughout the day!

The colours are a little darker than what I usually go for, but with a bit of eyeliner I didn’t feel too washed out:

 

And the back of the wrap is one of my favourite ways to tie my bun area – the elegant double twist braid!

Thursday’s Volumous Braid

Inspired by a friend that I met the day before (thank you!), I decided to try tying my accent scarf around the bun part of the wrap.  Here is the result!

I love braiding with scarves of different widths – it creates such a neat effect!

Hope you all are looking forward to a lovely weekend.  I sure am, and I am also super excited for the “Lady Wrap Star” that I will be posting on Saturday night!

Today’s Special: The Classic Braid

I’ve found myself in a bit of a “need to always create something new!” hair wrapping rut.  It seems that in my quest to create fresh and inspiring hair wraps, I have forgotten to continue rocking the classic “Andrea” wraps that I have created in the past.  Also, most of you on this new site haven’t even seen these wraps yet!  So, today I decided to wear a classic single braid with a cute butterfly pin.  This wrap was one of my first tutorials that I made, and you can find it here.
