Beach Fashion - Trendy Twine style!

Hi everyone!  Believe it or not, I am currently trying to beat the heat up here in Canada, so I thought I would have some fun using my Krazy for Kraft twine for a bit of beach fashion fun!  Now, I hope you are not expecting a string (twine?) bikini, because heaven knows you won't catch me in one of those, but I do have a couple of altered hats that I wanted to share with you all today! 
This first one simply uses a pompom with a bit of black embroidery floss mixed in for a dimensional and textural feature on the kraft coloured flower. 

And this second one uses a few knots and some twisted strands to take this beach hat from a bit drab to Trendy Twine fab (okay, that was really bad fashion cliche... I better stick to crafting)!  :) 

If you are interested in seeing some closeups of the embellishments, come on over to my blog for the insider's scoop!  And then, get "krafty" with some of that fun and versatile Krazy for Kraft twine!  There's still plenty of time to enter this month's challenge - twine bikini's included!!
