NEEDLEWORKMONDAY: PULL TABS
Hello everybody,
Today am sharing you my past crochet commissioned work with pull tabs. I collected the pull tabs myself, when ever I dined in any fast food resto I looked at the other tables if they left cans with pull tabs, I got the pull tab whenever I saw one. Then, wash and dried it under the sun and cut with cutter the sharp edges, placed them in a jar, collected it.
I made one first for my self, post it in FB, that was where I got orders, just local orders. Just limited order because sometimes no pull tabs, I just made flowers to accent the bag.
Handbag ordered by my neighbor to tuck in her bible, prayer booklets, wallet and keys. I handsew the lined inside including the pocket for the celphone.
Ordered by my daughter when she was still in Singapore working. It was her Christmas gift to her Singaporean co-worker.
For my upline in one of a networking company for weight loss, shipped to Manila, Philippines.
Again for my daughter...
Pull tab belt for my son's sister-in-law's daughter living in Japan
Just sorry I have no tutorial for all what I made before, always in a rushed. I am now collecting pull tab again, so, I can make tutorials and upload in my YouTube Channel.
Thanks for dropping by...

You are a genius! So many great ideas how to use the pull taps. I especially love the sky blue flower. It looks so precious with the addition of metal. I could imagine this a s a big necklaces or brooche. No wonder you get so many commissions.
Wow @jurich60 this is very clever and eye catching! I love that you made a way to reuse these tabs into something beautiful. They really add another layer of texture and design. I love every single bag you made and the belt, very cute designs!
