Looks like something that would be wrapped around an electrical cable and like PP have said round the handle of a new handbag

Or if you have new bedding it could be an offcut that could have been inside it or the packaging

From a new bag strap or something else similar like a belt

according to google image search

AI Overview

The item shown in the image is a wig grip headband. It is designed to be worn under a wig to provide a secure, non-slip fit without the need for adhesives, clips, or combs.

It's the wrapping off some form of contraceptive. Your husband is having an affair and the Other Woman left on your dressing table for you to find.

Isn't that the usual MN response?

Sorry yeah it was me I left it there over the weekend

It's packaging - possibly a cable tie - who do you live with? Ask them.

It's off the strap of a new bag.

It looks like the kind of thing securing a new cable. Does it fasten when you loop it into that circle?

CarrieMoonbeams · 10/11/2025 08:36

Definitely a fastener of some sort - I have similar on the battery pack of the fairy lights on my door wreath to hold it in place.

It looks like packaging for something. Like inside a shirt collar? (Although the shape in the third pic is a bit suss! 😂)

I assume you’ve asked the other person / people in the house?

😁

My granddaughter had one of these on the handles of her new handbag if that helps.

ThePoshUns · 10/11/2025 08:17

Just looks like some packaging, I wouldn’t have given it a second thought.

Looks like some kind of fastener. They're often wrapped round the cord of new small electrical items. Could it be that?
