The Alien Skull Ornament, available in large and small sizes, adds a bit of whimsy to your bag. We chose to decorate Just the Change, Anouk, and our Lipstick and Change CITY bags with Alien Skulls: we found that the femininity of the bags made the skulls appear almost benevolent, even cute! But don't limit yourself to decorating just bags: jeans, t-shirts, boot, jackets, belts, and anything you can rivet is fair game. We've got our eye on the bottom of a pair of flared blue jeans for our next endeavor. Add the decorated Anouk to the ensemble, and we've got a statement to make!

Application Instructions

We recommend setting Alien Skull rivets with Locktite Superglue Extra Time Control because the rivets are pewter and may not like the hammering of conventional rivet setting processes. To pierce fabric or leather, use an awl or leather punch, respectively. For best results, place all of the rivets where you want them and snap together. Then twist off the back of the rivet, apply glue to the receptacle in the center of the rivet back, re-snap together with the rivet front and hold for 10 - 15 seconds.

There are skull people . . . The mom of one of my girlfriends has knitting and accessory bags with skull and crossbones printed on them. I've seen people wearing skulls emblazoned across hats, the backs of leather jackets, knitted mittens.

And then there are people who don't know they are secretly skull people . . . I would be one of these. I have always been a great appreciator of the day of the dead, but not a skull person . . . until I screwed this little skull ornament onto the front flap of my Anouk bag. I love it. I want more. And because they are so easy to attach - just screw in place - it makes it easy to put them anywhere you want a little skull: a bag, a change purse, the front of a notebook cover. I can even see one screwed into the uppermost eyelet of your favorite lace-up boots. . . or sneakers. . . or. . . Have fun with these guys!
