My Whippycake

The other night I went out for a lovely evening with other school mummies. I got gently teased about all my various hair styles. It suddenly came to me, actually my hair is probably another craft activity…But it has always been thus. There have been a couple of years when I have had a bob, but for most of my life, my rather thin hair has been long. As young as twelve it became a form of creative expression. Lovely old friends of mine could tell hilarious stories of the teddy bear ears I wore to school, basically little buns on top of my head. What they would be amused to know is that even at the weekend I was sporting such a style for the local carnival (my son’s school was dressed completely as ‘Star Wars’) I will say no more. Before you ask – No, you will not be seeing any photos.

Well, not only do I like a little hair accessory, I adore corsages. During a blissful browse of the first ‘Mollie Makes‘ magazine I found a lovely little snippet about the company Whippycake. They make beautiful hair accessories which can be clipped into your hair, worn as a corsage or rather ingeniously attached to a hairband. I am in love. Although based in the US my whippycake arrived very quickly. I have to say I am a bit of an expert in this area, and the quality was excellent and I would not hesitate to buy another.

Do go and have a look at the Whippycake website. The photos and promo videos are delightful and there some really useful hair demonstrations if you are so inclined. The kind people at the company told me that they were coming to the end of some of their lines so do drop them an email if you are thinking of giving into temptation. I am a little bit giddy wearing mine and waiting for the new collection to pop up on my screen.
