Furoshiki: How To Wear! / Oh Joy!

Headband — I love using a furoshiki as a headband when I want to keep my hair out of my face while still looking put together. It's a fun way to bring in extra color and personality and perfect for the warm summer days we've been having lately!

Here's how… 
1. Fold furoshiki in half to create a triangle.
2. From the bottom, roll up until you reach the top point of the triangle.
3. Start by centering the furoshiki at the base of your head, bring up and knot.
4. Wrap the ends back under your head and secure with a double knot. Add bobbie pins to make it extra secure.

Here's how…
1. Like the headband, fold in half to create a triangle and roll up all the way.
2. Tighten around your neck as fitted or loose as you'd like. Tie with a double knot.
3. Fluff and smooth out the ends so they lay as you like.
