Description
This set of four glitter butterfly hairbands brings a little sparkle to children's hair, with each soft elastic band carrying its own butterfly. Two of the hairbands are deep blue and two are silver, the silver elastic shot through with a fine sparkle, so there is a matching pair of each. Every butterfly is made from glitter and felt, its wings packed with flecks of pink, blue, green and silver that catch the light, with a neat silver-toned band pinched across the middle. Each piece measures about 5.3cm across and 2.5cm high, a small, tidy size for bunches and ponytails.
We think they work as well for everyday wear as for dressing up, from school mornings to weekend days out and games of fairies in the garden. With four in the set, you can tie two matching bunches in blue or silver, mix one of each colour, or keep a spare pair in a school bag for later in the day. The butterflies sit flat against the hair, so they look just as pretty from behind as they do up close. The set comes on a teal card printed with fairies, flowers and leaves under the words Fairies in the Garden, which makes it easy to hand over as a small gift without any wrapping.
Each hairband is a continuous loop of elastic that stretches to hold hair in place and springs back after wear, with the butterfly attached to the band so it stays put. Glitter and felt are best kept dry, so we suggest brushing off any dust or fluff with a soft, dry cloth rather than washing them. Between wears, keep the set together in a small pouch or tin so the wings stay flat and nothing goes missing. For a sweet little present, pair them with a hairbrush or a favourite storybook.
