Diposting oleh fawaid on Minggu, 31 Oktober 2010

I have shared this project before but now I am taking it to the next level with.....Embellishments!

The basic shape and construction are SUPER easy to do and anybody can do it! See my tutorial with all the how to's here. Remember you can do them full length, 3/4 or even some funky wrist cuffs!

I was able to share this idea on Studio 5 last week! Take a peek for lots of ideas!!!

Here is a typed out list of ideas to use for embellishments:

Buttons

Rhinestones

grommets

scrapbooking brads

ribbons - all different widths

lace

rep gathered ruffles

tulle

ric rac

zippers

pre-made appliques

faux fur

jingle bells

rosettes

snaps (if you want to change out your embellishments)

etc., etc., etc.

You can add embellishments to any part of the arm warmers you'd like to - the top, the bottom, along the top or all over!!! Just have fun with it! This is a great project to do with your girls or a group of girls too!

Here are photos of some I created to give you a jump start with your own ideas! As always - please upload and share your photos into the Brassy Apple Flickr Group! I'd love to see how your crafted them up and how you wear them!

Don't forget you can throw them on as baby leg warmers too!

Let your girls be the "trend setters" in their class! Gather a group together and craft some up, great as stocking stuffers, or a stylish party favor! Just have fun!
