The Handbag


I found a handbag made by 'Kenneth Cole New York'. I wondered who would have ever fancied this baby blue fake croc design. All I saw were the pretty steel rings that attached the handles and so before I even Googled the brand I had started cutting them off. Well it turns out these bags go for up to around 400 dollars! Take a look here: http://www.kennethcole.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=3075304

Not that I care. The bag was really used and this is what the rings end up in.
If you want to see the listing in my shop look here.
And perhaps you remember that garden table I photographed the bag on! Look here.

A great hardware find and it looks fantastic for the bracelet. Is that made from t-shirt yarn?

Thank you, Cindy. Yes it's t-shirt yarn. I find it's perfect for smaller items like this too!

Have you tried the stretched t-yarn yet? It is so cool looking and great to work with. You stretch the t-yarn and it curls in on itself. It's an awesome new recycled yarn to craft with. I have a little tute at my site about how to do it. Hope you will try it and post a finished project.I'd love to see your creation with this curled t-yarn.
