I have a fondness for old sewing ephemera and rulers. I created my
charm from a vintage articulated ruler. I had a friend's husband
help me cut the ruler with a dremel into 1/2 inch increments on the
1/2 inch lines so a number would show on each charm. Then I went
through my vintage button box and chose little buttons for each
charm and I added the word "sew" to each one. I used my Fiskers
paper drill to drill the hole for the jumpring. I am so pleased how
they turned out-they have that lovely homespun quality to them that
I love.
