Creative Ways to Use Binding Rings

Ok, I admit it...I am obsessed with binding rings! Seriously, it might be a little bit unhealthy. When one of my co-workers opened a bag for samples this week, I practically demanded they "gimme gimme gimme" so I could hang them from my fingers, dig my hands into the bag and just wiggle my fingers around. It's weird, I know, and I own up to that. But don't knock it till ya try it!
