Bun Cover

                               {Dedicate as your "Headcovering" unto God}

{1 Corinthians 11:3-5 NIV}
3 Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. 5 And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is just as though her head were shaved.

I realise these "Bun Covers" are not "full head covers" (your hair is not down, lose. sexy, and flowing, drawing attention unto yourself), but I also believe God honors our hearts as daughters wanting to be obedient unto His Word, so dedicate your bun covers unto God as your Headcovering and He will Bless you for your obidence. God recieves "ALL" Glory while your being obident unto His Word by covering your hair (your hair is your glory) and by covering your giving HIM "ALL" the Glory
