Seems like a few ppl were asking about how to wear them. Here are a few " non traditional" ideas: on a shoe , hat, cloth purse, on a multi- chain necklace(very Anthro), in your hair fastened with Bobbi pins, or fastened to a hair tie, on a belt or a scarf used as a belt. Hope this helps some sparkle-challenged readers out there.
