Description:

We're going to take the cuff from a long sleeve shirt, sender's color choice. We're going to alter that cuff by adding great stuff-buttons, appliques, embroidery, lace, whatever. Remember when you cut it from the shirt leave about 1/4 to 1/2 inch or a finger's width of shirt for the cupcake look. Start looking now. Fraying is fine. Think Shabby Chic. Stains would be a NO! You'll have 1 partner. One bracelet to each partner. Start now!

Watching! But like VJP, I'd love to see a pic of this?

I just saw an article about this, but can't remember where I saw it at? Looked pretty interesting.

Cupcake look... Im confused.. so you would leave an edge to stitch so it ruffles? This sounds really cool... and I love to make cuffs but havent seen them made like this. And so NO stains, so we aren't using anything vintage or discolored? Thanks for clearing up these couple questions...
