Is it ok to put fringe on armbands? I'm starting on mine tomorrow(hopefully) and would appreciate any help.

Thanks,
OA_Dancer05

P.S. I will be beading these armbands.

ummmmmmm......... i don't think that i have ever seen or heard of putting fringe on armbands. now maybe acouple of strands of ribbon or even some bandanas or ermines but never fringe. look around at the pow wows and you'll see what i'm talking about

How would you attach a bandana to the armband?

I do have some ribbon, but I was trying to think of something with more movement.

No problem....

But really, how would you attach a bandana, just sew one corner to the armband?

OA,

I attached a white plastic curtain ring to my armband. Then I attached the corner of the scarf (or bandana) to the curtain ring.

I see...

That makes a lot of sense, I didn't remember until you said that, but I have seen this done at powwows before. It looks good so i'll give it a try.

Thanks ya'll,
