I understand that! Maybe I'll make some heart yo-yos. Oh yeah! Like I haven't alot to do!

I saw those on your site MLM. Very nice.

I'm going to be using them again in another jean purse idea. They are so nice to use. I used one in the altoid tin remake recently. And bear eyes. So many, many, uses for them! Can't beat them!

A while back, a friend of mine had made a full size bed coverlet with yo-yos.
She attached an assortment of yo-yos in a square then she bordered it with all white yo-yos. She made loads of these squares and then put them together.
You can decorate a sweatshirt with yo-yos. You can attach them on the shirt in a heart pattern and sew a button in the center of each one. Yo can use an assortment of different green yo-yos and arrange it like a Christmas tree and use a few brown as the trunk. You can applique or iron on a fuseable web backed flower pot then arrange some colorful yo-yos for the flowers.
Another friend had made a lovely vest made of yo-yos. Check out these links.
