I’m always looking for different ways to use up my scraps and remnants. I’ve altered, cut up and reconstructed a TON of t-shirts over the years, especially in your basic white and black.

DIY: Shattered Metal Purse
Admittedly , my mind works in weird ways. A couple months ago, I came across this Shattered Metal Dress on Nasty Gal. The metal pieces on the dress automatically made me think of broken CD’s…for some weird reason! After a few minutes of mulling it over, I thought about spray painting them, and then …

DIY: Leopard Print Suede & Rhinestone Bracelet
Anyone that knows me, knows that I love leopard print. So naturally, I’m loving this particular project. This bracelet was inspired by a piece I saw at Barneys NY, and to be perfectly honest, I’m not even sure if the leather in the original bracelet was supposed to mimic leopard spots. BUT, that’s how …
diy: Rhinestone and Bow ID Case
When I was younger, I used to adore Hello Kitty. Today, I might be (almost) in my mid-20’s, but I still love her just as much. It’s one of those things that keeps life fun and cute…especially when you have to start growing up. We all know gets life super stressful sometimes, so I think …
diy: Colorblock Thread Wrapped Belt
I was browsing Polyvore a while back, and came across a $52 J. Crew belt. It was super cute, but I knew it could easily be DIY’d – and I happened to have all of the supplies on hand. It’s really simple, and can easily be done within an hour or so. Photo …
DIY: Lanyard Stitched Clutch
This was one of those projects that I started without any real direction or idea as to what I was about to do.
