Beautifully Wrapped

strives to promote cultural understanding and spiritual identity through exploring the art of headwrapping and its unique intersection of fashion, tradition and culture. Our work has been exhibited in US libraries, universities, community centers as well as international conferences in Bermuda, United Arab Emirates and Senegal.

“Get outside of your comfort zone! Explore something new, learn about someone else’s beliefs and traditions. I bet you’ll find you learn something about yourself in the process.”

FASHION

“An outfit is not complete without a crown.” – West African Proverb.
Headwraps are a beautiful accessory to accentuate the face.

TRADITION

From Vietnam to South Africa and all across the globe, various cultures around the world incorporate the beautiful practice of wrapping cloth around the head.

SPIRITUALITY

For many, headcovering is a personal spiritual submission to the Creator. Metaphyiscal properties are a key part of controlling the energy around one’s self.

Welcome. If you are here, I can assume that you love learning about and exploring other cultures. I founded Beautifully Wrapped as a way to promote cultural understanding and healing. As an anthropologist and avid traveler, my work leads me to discover new and exciting ways for us as humans to get to know, and love one another. Whether you attend one of our workshops or events, travel with us, or attend one of our tutorial sessions, I hope you enjoy yourself and that we make your day just a little bit brighter.

The act of wrapping is like the building of courage, strength, spirituality, and love all at once. With each fold, tuck or pull of the cloth, you become beautifully wrapped in a sense of inner strength and a higher purpose.
