Cell phone lariats are special findings that attach to the hook on your cell phone. They're available in a variety of colors and styles, from plain to fancy.

To attach a strap to your phone, just thread the end of lariat through the attachment, then through itself to make a lark's head knot. You can attach beads and charms to the end of the lariat to personalize your phone.

You can add a little bit of bling by attaching CZ-Gem Dropz™ to a jump ring and connecting it to the end of the strap. For more drama, add connected bead links.

You can use cell phone straps to attach beaded dangles to any media that has an attachment point, such as an mp3 player, a camera or a PDA.
