A few years ago, I created the Leaves Hair Tie, and it quickly became an absolute favorite, adored by all. Recently, I found inspiration in my new Whisper Crown Headband and crafted a lacy hair tie. I am thrilled to introduce it to you! This hair tie is a quick knit, seamless, and child-friendly, with no seams, glue, or sharp elements. Perfect for little ones’ accessories.

The sculpture in the photographs is the enchanting Niña Con Aro by Marino Amaya, a masterpiece from 1962, gracefully situated in the heart of Victoria Plaza, Málaga, Spain. Behold its timeless charm!
