'Stitching Red' Takes Recycled Jewelery to a Whole New Level
Michael Hines — August 21, 2010 — Fashion
I was almost left speechless the first time I saw Stitching Red. This Merino wool necklace shares an uncanny resemblance to a feminine hygiene product.
While Stitching Red doesn't totally look like a tampon, the similarities are certainly there. If you're into unique and bizarre-looking accessories, this necklace can be yours for $125. Thanks to Stitching Red, you never have to get off of your rag.
Implications - If you've got a friend who is easily grossed out or disgusted by such things, then these necklaces from Stitching Red may be the perfect gift. If you can control your own stomach enough to avoid vomiting while wrapping up these peculiar accessories, then your present might be the highlight of the party!
