Pop /tab/ fashion

Hi-de-ho neighbor. I found a tutorial on making funky fresh pop-tab belts at Oh So Crafty's blog.











The instructions she provides are very image heavy and detailed, so I shan't restate them here. Creating a belt seemed a tad ambitious for my purposes. I made a bracelet, following the directions closely with help from the pictures. I'm gonna say... it wasn't easy. I worked on it for about an hour and I think the length is perfect.











I love the creative recycling you can incorporate into fashion with pop tabs. I have a crocheted pop tab purse from Escama Studio that my new bracelet will match.!





But wait...Is there such a thing as too much pop?

Yes. Recycling is great and you get an accessory while doing it. The purse is a bit too much for me though. Love the bracelet.
