Abstract

The present invention describes a frame made from a plurality of strands. The strands have a certain length, which may or may not be equal. The three or more strands run substantially in parallel to each other forming a length of said frame and held together by a length of at least one other strand spirally wound about the three parallel strands. An ornament comprising of full or partial length of the frame is attached thereto and is completed in a shape of a ribbon of a pattern, such as a leaf branch. A flexible tie forms a strip of flexible material that attaches the ribbon to the frame, which may also include a comb. The frame may be ring like or may have distal ends. Both the frame and the ribbon of ornament are able to be co-twisted when attached together and retain the end shape of the twisting by a user, who may also re-twist both into any shape, any number of times.
