Handmade accessories
I (Rachel Hughes) grew up in Toronto, Canada, where I was first exposed to the wonderful world of fibre art through the education I received at a Waldorf School.

Like most creations, the Twist headbands were born out of a slow design evolution. One thing leads into another, leads into another and next thing you know, there is a product that people can’t get enough of! Let’s hear it for the “craft fails”!
