Haha, it sounds like you mixed up the two words "riff raff" and "bric-a-brac" a little...rick rack is "a flat narrow braid woven in zig zag form".

Though I do really like this idea! It's very cute, especially if you're like me and you end up with tons of miscellaneous things that don't match anything else.
