#TheSpunkySoul Guitar String Eyeglasses Holder #Review


     Do you know what I don't have enough of?  Accessories.  I do get the occasional necklace or earrings, I suppose.  But I never really accessorize the way that I see a lot of women do.  I never wear a scarf, almost never wear bracelets or headbands.  I'm a pretty sad case actually.  But I am trying to up my game some now that my kids are getting older and I have a bit more motivation than I used to.
     One thing that I never really thought to accessorize until recently is my glasses.  But there are ways that you can add some flair to them, albeit, not many.  One way is to use eyeglass charms.  They clip onto the frames, but there are few options and most of them are for kids.  Another way that you can accessorize your eyeglasses is with an eyeglasses holder or chain.  They keep your glasses from hitting the floor if they fall off your nose, making them useful and pretty.  They're also great for keeping your glasses handy around your neck, so that they don't get lost or left behind.
      The one I just got is from Spunky Soul.  It's beautiful and is made from guitar string in both turquoise and purple.  The design of it is very simple, but also very pretty.  It alternates turquoise and purple guitar strings and separates them by about eight light blue seed beads.  Because it's made of guitar string, it has a neat springy feel to it.
     The eyeglass holder pieces at the end are adjustable to fit thick and thin frames.  They add 2 1/2 inches to the over all length of the holder, making it 31 1/2 inches total.  It's a nice length.  When looking at my photos, keep in mind that I'm quite short.
     Usually a person will probably lose their glasses off the tip of their nose, but I actually lose my gasses off the back of my head because I forget that I placed them up there.  I'm not too keen on wearing them all the time and set them up there without thinking.  So I will be wearing the holder much like a necklace instead of your typical way, like above.  I might even add a pick to finish it off, since I'll be wearing it up front.  I love that the possibilities are endless.
     It comes nicely packaged and ready for gift giving.  To be honest, I'm not sure that I would give it as a gift to anyone that I don;t know for sure wears this type of thing.  As The Big One put it when I asked her if she'd wear one, "They're an old granny thing."  So maybe just make sure that they would use it first, it's become somewhat eccentric.  But for someone who does wear them, I think this would make a great gift, especially for a musician.
     All in all, I think this is a really pretty eyeglasses holder and I will probably use it every time that I go out somewhere so that I don't lose my glasses.  I love the guitar string look and feel and it will definitely come in handy.  Do you have glasses?  How do you keep them safe?
