My new favourite!

On By Andrea GrinbergIn Daily Scarf Creation6 Comments

Yes, I spell “favourite” with a “U”;  I’m Canadian, eh!

I was recently inspired by this video and wanted to try the wrap.  I was all ready to use my new sparkly brown scarf for it, but when I attempted the tie, I found the ends were much too long and heavy for it to work.  So, I made an adjustment and wrapped the longer end around my head once again (with a slight twist) and tucked it under the knot once I had brought it around.  Sounds complicated? It’s not.  Let me know if you would like a tutorial!

I finished off the look with a beautiful pin and was ready to face the day.  I got many more comments about my wrap than I am used to… so I consider this one a success!

Triple Twist!

Here is a creative variation on the double twist wrap that was featured last week.  One of our readers (thank you Lauren!) shared a photo of her with a TRIPLE twist and I just had to try it.  You can do it easily by following the video but instead, you just wrap one of the ends around your head instead of the two shown (this leaves three ends hanging for the triple twist), or conversely you could use three scarves if you want to be super intricate!  I was very happy with the results!

The New Twist

I am still experimenting and perfecting this new wrap!  I think it’s now mastered, so you can look forward to a video on how to do it soon!  This one was done with two cotton scarves instead of the shimmery gold and yellow ones from before.  And my beaded bobby pin was the perfect contrasting accessory 🙂

Bring On the Colour!

Brrrrr!  It’s cold outside where I’m living, so, armed with inspiration from today’s “Lady Wrap Star”, Elizabeth (see post here), I decided to don a bright square scarf, add another bright long scarf and finish it off with twists!  My awesome husband also took these photos, which resulted in much nicer shots than the ones I take of myself 🙂

I hope that everyone had a lovely weekend and is looking forward to a productive week filled with beautiful moments, surprises, achievements, special connections and of course, gorgeous head wraps!
