We have made an interesting wallet with our iron-on vinyl, but what else can this sucker do?
When I was reading the back, it had all kinds of ideas... that frankly made me chuckle, but I thought that maybe I could use it to make a nifty bracelet from comic books. After all, I had some left from my previous endeavors with the wallet. (If you are looking for comic books, please avoid the recent issues. You will only be tearing them up. Instead, turn to thrift stores and antique malls. Ebay is good if you are buying several at a whop. Usually the comics are better anyway!)
The only difficult in making a bracelet is to get a good section of comic since you will be folding it. How do you like my selection. He really is all teeth isn't he, but I could not fight the allure of the Batman logo in his crazy eyes.
But that is telling us nothing of how to go about it...
I wish I had tutorial pictures, but sadly, I don't. But what I did was apply the iron-on vinyl as dictated by the package. I did both sides, but feel free to only cover the side you want on the outside. I then folded it in partial thirds after carefully cutting out the Joker's hand and chin with my trusty exacto blade. A quick blanket and hem stitch in a matching color, and we are almost there.
Last... not least, I added some snaps to my bracelet, and PRESTO! I could wear it. I love to pair it with my Batman shirt that I upgraded from the Walmart boy's section! What will you do with your iron-on vinyl? (I hope to someday make comic book, bar chair cushions with mine!)
