I do remember doing these back in the seventies. I would lvoe to find a smaller jar and wrap it with those already on a string, pearls.

Great idea! It got me thinking: What else wood look good wrapped with yarn or twine or ribbon in this way?

My first idea: A very utilitarian-looking over-the-door ironing board hanger that is exposed for all to adore (not) in my small apartment. I’ve already sewn an ironing board cover in a cute fabric to help the situation. (It was my first-ever sewing project, so “cute” is a relative term.) Now, I could wrap the plastic hanger thingie in a complementary color. If you can’t hide it, decorate with it, right?

Anyway, thanks for the idea – love your blog!
