Product Description
This book explores previously unreleased techniques for saving time and money using inexpensive and readily available tools (an accordion hat rack makes wonderful tassels) and easy-to-find yet unique materials. Make expensive-looking, elegant tassels from regular yarn and wood pieces found in any hardware store using time-saving tools available in most yarn, craft, hardware, and discount stores. More than 40 tassel and fringe projects include a mosaic-topped tassel made from a deodorant cap, a silk flower topped tassel made from foam, and a colorful key tassel made from embroidery floss and an empty sewing thread spool. Also included are numerous patterns for making fringed projects including a table scarf, footstool, and beaded lampshade. There are as many types of tassels and fringe as there are tastes in crafting.
40+ tassel and fringe projects.
Step-by-step directions with helpful illustrations.
Inexpensive materials and tools yield spectacular results.
Elegant Applications chapter shows how to incorporate tassels and fringe in any dcor.
