Underwire Purse Handles



For some reason I was lamenting both my disappointment in the available purse handles at the craft store and the fact that my bras seem to last for a very short amout of time. In the midst of this internal complaint I may or may not have come up with a brilliant idea.




Yes, the underwire that was poking me in the underarm all day suddenly seemed like the perfect size for a purse handle. I took off the plastic ends, added some beads, and used needle-nosed pliers to curl up the ends.




what do you think?





Sadly, I don't have much else to share. I realize that I haven't actually finished a project since I started this blog. I'm thinking that that is only because of bad timing. I've been day dreaming alot about just having one job and having the evenings free to knit and paint and maybe learn to spin.


I am working on some cool stuff (however slowly), but it is top-secret. The holidays are coming up!
