I've told you about the new Planet Earth Silk Ribbons, right? Well, I love tassels and it seemed to me that my love for tassels and for Planets Earth's Silk Ribbon could merge in a beautiful way.
Let me present... "On the Fringe", an easy method to make elegant tassels.
These tassels can be used at the ends of lariat necklaces, or at the edge of a beautiful piece of needlepoint, or just decorating a lovely jug, (as shown above). I have some hanging from my studio cupboard knobs. Since I can't keep things to myself, I've put together a little something for you. Silk ribbon, Ultrasuede, beautiful jewelry findings, a silk cord and coordinating beads.
The instructions come with step by step illustrations. All you need is an iron and scissors.
