busy beady fingers

 

This is a new card holder for me. I love the embellishment, but I need to live with this for a while to see if it will work.

Will the ceramic face crack easily?

Will the beading hold up to being put in and out of pockets all the time?

It may be gorgeous, but maybe not so practical. I have made another one that I will give as a gift to a friend, and she can be a 'tester' too.

I have a meeting today, and I am going to do a similar desing but on a bag, which I think will work better. I just know that my keys live in my pocket, and espite beading thread, and regular knots, I wnat to know these will last longer than 5 minutes if I am going to sell them.

The one below was 'ordered' by a friend. I am happy with how it turned out, and she liked it to. GREAT!
