The beginning of August marked the end of the summer orchestra program that my husband and I have been directing. We finished off with a ridiculously epic concert (the kids were INCREDIBLE… like, woa!) so an equally ridiculously epic scarf tie was needed since I was to be MC-ing the concert.
This tichel was wrapped similarly to the technique shown in this video. Honestly, there were so many tails hanging around that I just tied and tucked them in randomly… and got lucky with the result!
A high bun and long, flowing scarves are the keys to achieving a medieval princess wrap. This is the perfect wrap for those too-large scarves that sometimes feel a bit cumbersome to work with!
Notice how adding a black shirt changes the look completely! (It was chilly with the AC inside.)

It’s not every day that I celebrate being married to my outstanding husband for exactly two years. Here is the tichel that I wrapped for our anniversary:

With lots of volume and height from the sides:

Don’t you love the colours? Here is some more detailed shots:
… let me count the ways!
I got this super silky scarf, and my [almost] sister in law expressed her concern for how it would slip off easily! Enter the velvet headband! With it, I can wear the slipperiest scarves for hours and hours, and I don’t even need to check on it!
As well… check out this scarf! It’s much less colourful than my usual, but is elegant and looks beautiful without a complicated tie or volumizer.
A dear friend of mine gave me a stunning scarf as a gift; Upon receiving it, I had no idea how I was going to incorporate it into a hair wrap, because it was small and triangular, see-through, with fringe! Little did I know that it would allow me to create one of the most stunning wraps!
(This is the “new” wrap that I was speaking about before – on my tutorial list! It has a four tail braid with the fringe poking out.)
