That sounds great! Except it would make your wrist hot and sticky during the summer. Maybe the badges could be pinned on to a fabric or crocheted cuff too.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

I love this idea! Whenever I put my badges on my bags or clothing, they always fall off and I've been looking for a way to display them and not lose them. This is perfect! Thank you so much! Where do you come up with all these creative ideas?

Are you sewing with vinyl or something else? Do you use a special foot? I\'ve tried sewing vinyl (for this project) but it keeps catching. I\'m thinking about getting a teflon foot but I figured I\'d ask if you used something other than vinyl first.

Thanks :) It\'s such a cute idea too.
