While taking pictures for my newest project (will post right after this one), it occurred to me that I failed to post these tankard covers, when I couldn't find any pics of either of them. I've used both of them for years now. Very simple project, and useful for thrifted tankards that may have writing etched into them like these did. And, also very convenient for hanging our accumulation of trinkets on!
Basic staggered scale patter panel woven tho the width and height of the cup body. Then laced on using the tail end of the panel. The jewels are attached with those bedazzler studded rimmed acrylic gems. The specific type of tabs I used them on had two divets that were just right at .5" to push the studs of the gem into. Used these before in red on my mom's topless hat.
Not only does it cover the writing on them, it also makes it easy to identify which tankard is mine. :)
