I am loving this new wrap and I hope you will too! Here is the tutorial for an easy summer tie that makes it look like you have a matching flower pinned to the side of your head. And all you need is one square scarf! (Cotton and silky materials both work well.) Enjoy!

Fancy New Wrap!
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.)
Deep Ocean Hues
I love this scarf. Mostly because my husband got it for me, but also because it is so versatile and makes it look like I am wearing more than one. And the colour. Of course the best thing is the colour. Keep an eye out for scarves with wide vertical stripes like this!
In these photos, I am wearing a basic regal wrap with a brooch added for a little extra sparkle.
Wrapunzel Gallery
It has been requested that a gallery be made available of all the daily post wraps. Here it is, saving you from scrolling! This “Wrapunzel Gallery” much like the pink header up above, but instead showcases ALL the wraps featured on the site so far. Some of these photos were taken before Wrapunzel existed, when hair wrapping was just a small section of my other website, but the majority of them were featured as daily posts. This gallery is for you to save, pin, print, share with friends, etc. Think of it as a comprehensive scarf tying database and use it for inspiration!

My new favourite!
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!
Colourful Braid
A classic braided wrap with a colourful scarf and sparkly sash!
Layers & Lace
I wore a skirt for the last day of Passover (a holiday in which we celebrate the splitting of the sea) that was mostly neutral colours with a touch of army green. It took a while for me to figure out what to wear on my head to match – usually I match my outfit to my hair covering – but I was very happy with the result!
You can check out a tutorial on how to do this wrap here.
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 🙂
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? ❤ )
The Classic Layered Regal Wrap
This wrap is such a classic… and always gets a lot of “wow”s and questions. It’s easy! You can be a little less careful with it (ie leave scarf fringe hanging out, don’t line up layers perfectly) and it still looks put together. This one is exactly the same wrap that I show in this video, except minus one scarf.
Hope you are all doing well! Happy wrapping 🙂
