A product of Blue Moon Beads, this package of two 8-inch PVC Bracelets was in the bargain bin at the craft store. These bracelets are so dainty and cute! The best part is, THERE ARE TWO OF THEM!!
I say that because I love the dainty-ness of the bracelet and at first envisioned either sewing or wiring on a fabulous swarovski crystal for a focal bead with lots of tiny crystals trailing off on either side. What a perfect canvas this little band would make for bright sparkly crystals!! The PVC bracelet is very sleek and shiny black.
Then my rebel side kicked in and I thought it would be fun to sort of "punk" this up. Not necessarily to old school safety pins, but maybe some cool chrome-like pieces and parts with a few shots of bright red 1950's type kitschy beads or buttons.
OR, an even more interesting idea might be to make a double decker band by using beads in between as columns of some sort. What do you think?

I'd love to see you do one of each - crystal and punked! Some oxidized metal things riveted onto the PVC bracelet base would be fun.
Whatever you do with them, be sure to show us - I'm sure they'll be great!
I've recently purchased a red leather band like this and I've been trying to decide what to do with it myself...fun, classy, or a little over the top...
I was even considering doing a doggy collar with it as people love to dress up their dogs... :0)
What ever you do it will be great...
Cheers
PUNK!! PUNK!!!
i refuse to let go of my punk side :) still wear my chucks, color my hair rainbow colors and wear my biker jacket leather jacket.
i have just recently accepted my softer side, and allowed myself to embrace my hippie roots set down by my mom.
Punk!
