I went back to my piece from Oscar Week, my homage to The Social Network for today's creation.
These leftover cuffs had been sitting on my sewing table since then and I had been looking at them way too long! I wanted to finally put them to use!
I actually had the perfect idea - something that isn't currently in my collection that I secretly wouldn't mind wearing when I'm hiking...
I seam ripped the area between the excess sweatshirt material and the cuff first...
Once the extra material was removed...
I folded under the cuffs and pinned them in place before I sewed the edges down.
I went to my stash of iron-ons!!
Cut out a few 'M's...
...and ironed down!!
I removed the decal...
...and voila! Personalized wristband!!
I did a little color switch up just for fun, but I'm excited to actually start wearing them! I always thought they were just a statement...
...but look forward to not wiping my face on my shirt sleeve anymore while running or hiking Runyon Canyon! I got my bands to keep my face drip free and the sweat out of my eyes and contacts which is not a pleasant feeling :)
Prepare for in-action pics this weekend!!
