OH WOW, hair ties and bobby pins! Very beautiful. But I’m not sure I get it. Are they just decorative, or ornaments, or meant to be taken apart and used??

Regardless, they’re lovely and cool!

great packaging makes such a difference, these are beautiful. and oddly enough look very similar to the chroma lab logo from your previous posting…

this is a very interesting collaboration – thanks for sharing it – it gave me my mantra for the day!

the photos make them look much bigger than they must be on the shelf. I have to get the hair pins!
