Great thread elle tee!

Piaffe's Kelly scarf handle is legendary and I adore lilyhermes' and transcendant's recent ideas (so much that I've been plotting and copying)

umamanikam, Vanillasky and annie9999 - fabulous input ladies, ingenious :idea:!

Vanmiracle has done a true miracle on her scarf drawers, using Bolduc ribbons and H paper bags. I'll try and find a pic.

maria28 and A-T-G, thank you :heart:

ammietwist, the Marvari as a backing of a fitted vest would look just sensational!

A while ago I draped a Bolduc ribbon around my neck, so here it is again.

Wonderful projects everyone!!
I've tryed to make my own "H" items... tryed "Le 24", Keys holder and Carmen/carmencita. I won't post them here since some may look at them as "replicas". Don't really use any of them, just made them for the sake of crafting.... understanding the designs..... That's for LOVE of H!

MaiTai you're a SWAN!! I :heart: your neck! (this may sound a bit vampire-ish, but I assure you I won't bite!!)

As I stated before on other posts my apologies for not having pics (I'm not computer savvy) but wanted all to know the many usages I've gotten out of my breloque.We all know you can use it as a charm on your bag.If you loop a twilly through the kelly lock part & tie the twilly then adjust it on the back of your neck & with the little clamp attach that on to other end of the twilly you have a necklace.Also if you do the same thing at the beginning (looping the twilly through,ect) but then instead of tying the end of the twilly put it on your wrist & do one twilly end around your wrist one way & the other twilly end around you twilly the other until you can tie the twilly in a knot.Then you take the little clamp of the breloque & clamp it on the twilly.This way you have a bracelet.The best way I can describe how it looks like is that it is like when you normally have a twilly on your wrist but then across you also have the breloque(I think it looks very pretty that way).Since I have bigger hips I attach it to my evelyne strap( one end of the evelyne strap to a link before the kelly lock part & the other end of the evelyne strap to the other end bit of the breloque).That turns it into a low hip hugger thick styled belt.I hope you guys understand what I mean.Oh & of course several different spots on the evelyne bag that I hang it on as a charm.Last but not least & this may not work for everyone but I use it as a glove holder.I have thin unlined gloves I use (hoping for H ones soon)& had the breloque wrapped around them attached to the back of my birkin handle.This may not work on all gloves but it did work with mine.

Great ideas, Diva :tup: I just wanted to add a heads-up - I used to lengthen my kelly straps with the breloque so that I could wear them cross-body, but once, one of the links opened up from the pressure and the whole thing came apart. I guess breloques wasn't designed to take much weight - my kellys are only 28 and 25 and it's not like I haul gold bars around ;) Now I use them for purely decorative purposes!

LV makes a chain keychain that you can wiggle through the kelly ring (to double up) to extend the strap.

I also wrapped the kelly strap around my wrist five times for a fitted bracelet and hung a charm off that. . .

This happened to me without much pressure so beware. I was and still am waiting on a longer strap for my Evelyne. While H is fixing my breloque I am going to have to come up with a different idea for lengthening my "concert" bag strap.

Thank you all for your sweet comments to a semi newbie like me.Oh MaiTai,you have no idea how much of an inspiration you have been to me with Hermes items,for me its an honor that you acknowledge my ideas.You ladies are right about being cautious to use to extend the evelyne or kelly with it,thats why I chose to use it in the ways I explained above because they are safe.I do hope MaiTai when you do get the breloque that you post pics because you will make all the ideas look so amazing for everyone to see.
