Triple-y Twisted, the new DB?

On By Andrea GrinbergIn Daily Scarf Creation15 Comments

So I was running out of the house today, ready to do my go-to double braid (the DB), when I thought, why not do three twists instead of two braids?  Both use three 2 in 1s, which were already on my head all ready to go!  So I tried it, and do I ever like it!  What do you think?  Do you think this will be the new DB?

Wishing you all a lovely weekend!  Remember to take a moment, breathe in the miraculous air around you, and be thankful for all the miracles in your life!  Thank you for making the Wrapunzel community the living miracle that it is!

Love, Andrea

Earthy Dreams

Rivka Malka recently talked me into getting this sari scarf… I was so unsure of it, but she had the foresight to see that it would match and pull together so much of what is in my wardrobe!  FYI ladies if Rivka Malka makes a fashion suggestion to you… listen!

I loved wearing this green, orange, grey (toldja the colours were weird!) sari scarf with this outfit yesterday.  It was a gorgeous day and my husband was more than willing to snap some photos for y’all!

Have you ever had some advise you or give you something that you weren’t sure about and then you ended up LOVING it?  It’s incredible how our friends can see potential in us that we don’t normally see!

Much love, Andrea xx

Signature Colours!

So in case y’all haven’t heard yet, a Wrapunzel Store will be opening soon!  Your demands have been heard – yay!  For now, the blog and the store are being kept separate (most of you requested this) but since Rivka Malka‘s and my life right now is revolving around setting this baby up, many of my wraps are done using our new scarves!

Tichels are generally a hit and miss … and since we will only sell what we wear ourselves, (and for a price we would pay – this one is a toughie!) searching for perfect scarves has been quite an adventure!  Recently one particular scarf arrived which made us gasp in shock and excitement because the colours were simply EPIC!  I wore it yesterday and couldn’t wait to post it!

It’s a one scarf wonder!  What do you think?

We also just sent one of these out to the lucky winner of our recent giveaway.  I can’t wait to see what she does with it!

It’s like, all of my favourite colours at once!  And this wrap was so easy to put together (did it without a mirror in much haste!)  Enjoy!

How do I love my velvet headband…

… 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.

Flower Power

I can’t even tell you how many compliments and smiles I got just by wearing this bright flower on a sunny day.  Yay for making people happy!  Others seemed to think that this was a very complicated wrap, but really, it’s only a regal wrap with the stretchy flower headband added in.  Will definitely be doing this style more often!

Flowers ‘n’ Ribbons

I am really starting to look forward to opening my mail box.  There are so many artistic ladies on this site! My friend, Stephanie, who is a Lady Wrap Star (see her post here) is also starting to make her own scarf wrapping accessories!  They are gorgeous, and work very well because they are specifically made for those of us that cover with scarves.  I am loving this pretty gift of a yellow flower clip/headband – I can’t seem to stop wearing it!

I hope that one day I can start being crafty like some of the ladies on here… but for now, I can just get excited about opening my mail box!  Here is the flower headband/clip on a different wrap:

Stephanie is also making hair clip holders (basically, a pretty ribbon – or two – attached to a loop that can be hung on your wall) and sent me one.  It holds my flower clips beautifully and is very practical for storage.  You can see it on the left side of this photo.  (On the right is how I store my pins.)  Yay no more crushed flowers!

I am not sure, but I do think she is selling her creations and since everything is made by hand, will do special requests.  I will let her clarify that!  Thank you Stephanie!
(and FYI – she did not ask me to make this post… but how could I not? ❤ )
