Wear a whimsical octopus sculpture right in your bun or ponytail

Ready-to-print STL from Thingiverse, perfected by makers

This playful Octopus Bun Cover started as a curved sculpture at a hackerspace and quickly became a must-have when an artist clipped it into her hair with a paintbrush. Originally shared on Thingiverse, it's a quirky 3D printed toy that doubles as functional hair jewelry—perfect for anyone who loves blending art with everyday style.

The design features gracefully curved tentacles that naturally grip a bun, top knot, or ponytail. While the creator plans to add closed loops for chopstick holders in a future version, the original STL works beautifully as-is. Just print, clip, and go.

Whether you're assembling a collection of unique 3D print files or hunting for a one-of-a-kind accessory, this octopus brings hackerspace creativity straight to your hair. It's equal parts sculpture, conversation starter, and wearable experiment.
