My New Weave

These days I’ve been wearing my hair much longer and was excited to start braiding it like the styles seen during Fashion Week. My many attempts have been unsuccessful though! I finally gave up and decided to experiment using a different medium, which led to creating this headband.

I used some cord, gold chain, leather, leftover kimono fabric, and some other random things.

It was fun experimenting with weaving the materials together to see how the colors and textures altered the look of the braid. I used chain on the ends to make the closure adjustable for a universal fit. I also stamped a heart shape out of leather to add a little bling.

It’s amazing how many things one can haphazardly cram into one headband.
