Steamy Wristcuff



Last night, after looking at an old zipper, I decided to make one of those steamy wrist cuffs I have seen around the ethernet.
So I dug up some vintage cotton lace I had in the fabric closet and tea dyed it with a strong batch of black tea and ended up with a great antique looking lace.

Combining the two thing resulted in a cute, simple up-cycled wrist cuff.
I have seen these in many version and most of the time I think they end up looking to heavy and crowded with embellishments, but they are dead easy to make, so making my own was the best solution.

I think I will be wearing this cuff a lot.
