Victorian Cuff Swap

By - 13 comments
 A Victorian Cuff swap was hosted by Sweet Shelley Honey Lamb and I and Natalie 1 Hungry Hippie.
I haven't received one yet but I know mine was delivered two days ago.   Since this has been a very low energy week for me I am showing you the cuff I made and sent ... I am hoping my swap partner liked it.
I have (what I think is) this beautiful lace ribbon and thought it would make a lovely back ground.  I made the ribbon rose, the smaller ribbon flowers were premade, added beads to a metal butterfly finding and sewed on the rose trim.  It closes with a snap...I sewed on two so it is adjustable and then  covered the first snap with one of the smaller ribbon flowers if it's not being used.  
Thank you Shelley and Natalie, I really enjoyed making this cuff for the swap.  (())

That is really beautiful! I had never heard of a Victorian cuff. I guess they wore them to gussy themselves up? You are SO talented. Wish I could do half of what you do.

Francie, that is beautiful!! Lord, that took a lot of time! There is a lot of detail work. Listen if your partner does not like it, send it on to me!

So you make these so that they can be worn? This is beautiful, and looks like a lot of work - is this a monthly swap? You have your online shop, and participate in several swaps. Have you thought about writting a book on how to budget time - I could learn!

Francie~ Thank you for the warm welcome the Blissfull ATC Swap. I appreciate you adding me to your list of names as well. Your crafts are great! I love the apples and candy... And this cuff is really pretty too. Maybe we will be partnered up sometime in the future. I am currently attempting to finish my box for the ATC Holder Contest/Challenge... Hope to see and hear from you again soon.

PS Do you just go down the list of names and look for posts about the swap, or is there an easier way to view the ATC's?
