These are the items I hand-sewed for my cousin.   I used this tutorial to make the ring, then I came up with a cute ponytail holder to match.  She loved everything...and so did I!  I almost kept them for myself.  I'll probably make myself several rings in varying colors and styles once all the holiday festivities are over.  I have such ridiculously small fingers so it's hard to find rings that fit.  Usually I have to have my rings custom-sized (which means no costume jewelry for me) so this tutorial is perfect!
