Jewelry by Shannon says:Wow, all of these lanyards are so pretty!
Are they mostly for company badges or eye glass holders? SLS

I market these lanyards for ID Badges, Eyeglass Holders, Keys, and Electronic Key Cards. Customers who contact me for special request say they use them form ID Badges, Electronic Keys and Old School Keys =) Some have requests to remake them into necklaces…If they can describe what they need then I will make it.
