I was at a store recently and saw a tank top with rhinestones. It was a little pricey, and I thought to myself that's something I can make for way less. I went to Michael's and price them with my coupon it's a great savings. If you have use rhinestones on a tee shirt or cap, what was your experience. What is your recommendation?

Most definately! I use all kinds of them, like triple-grade Chinese hotfix, Korean hotfix, and acrylic. If I'm richer than now, I would buy a few bags here and there of Swarovskis. I use them just about anywhere - clothing, scrapbook bits, hats, and even journals. When I have a lot of money to spend, I'll buy a cell phone cover and I'll buy bags of two Swarovski flatback colors. Maybe I'll decorate the case in the pattern of a puzzle piece (to represent being proud of what I do in the world, despite having high-functioning autism) or my birth state, New Jersey. I have seen pictures upon pictures of phone cases encrusted with those rhinestones all over the Web and real life. I would like to buy and decorate one myself if I financially could!

I use them on my cards...and my daughter used them to decorate small bags....she got them from the dollar store three for a dollar.....she did different designs on them with rhinestones and sold them at a craft fair....everyone loved them.

Wow, I never thought the dollar store sold those. I am definitely going to check the Dollar Store.
