Keith Richards I am Not

(don’t you hate it when you are looking for a specific image and you can not find it for anything…well pretend that is inserted here!)

I guess an alternate title could be I ain’t no Jack Sparrow…
or Johnny Depp (he also seems to like the stacked bracelet-150 things on your arm gig like Richards).

Which brings me back to my entry.
Rag Bracelets.

My Clay buddy Lisa Clarke did a blog entry about the same time I started seeing these things pop up around the net.  She sews alot more than I do so she had more fabric choices. 

I have 2 shirts that I was using to make the lining of a jeans purse (that broke my sewing machine) and this past week in florida, I bought an old plaid polo.  I think it is great fun to make rag jewelry out of old shirts…I think they will fray faster and heck, right now I have a Tommy Hilfiger dress shirt and the plaid Polo AND a cheapie from walmart all thanks to your local goodwill.

simple and fun

The only difference I have noticed between mine and other is I double twisted mine so they are a bit thicker and theoretically can fray more.

What is your current favorite crafty thing?
