When you’re a crafty lady, it’s easy to build up a stash of random chains. With that said – this is a stash-buster DIY that will put all that leftover chain to good use! It’s really simple and easy to make, even for beginner DIY’ers and jewelry makers. Check out how I made it below: …
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 …
This project is perfect for a weekend afternoon. I love mini versions of anything, so this is definitely one of my favorites. It also uses a slightly unexpected item; small crocheted doilies found in the scrapbook/embellishment section. Once it’s finished, you can either hang it up, or attach it to a long strand of chain …
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 …
I was recently browsing Anthropologie’s website, and came across this necklace below. It’s adorable and fun, but I knew it could definitely be made for much less than $48. The supplies are also pretty basic, so I didn’t even need to buy additional materials. If you’re an avid DIY’er, there’s a good chance you have …
If there’s anything I love about spring & summer – aside from the longer days and sunshine – it’s the chance to DIY so many more clothes. Practically all of my warm weather clothes are altered or handmade. So, naturally, I’m really looking forward to the change of season. This project is a quick and …
This is probably already a given, but my following collections are pretty huge: 1) Fabric and old clothes to re-use. 2) Jewelry, mostly handmade of course. By myself or other people. Recently, I decided I needed to figure out a better way to store my rings. I used to hold them in a small container …
Lanyard (or plastic lacing, or gimp, or boondoggle, or whatever you’d like to call it!) has definitely been making a comeback. For most of us, it’s a blast from the past that had a pretty significant role in our childhood – or at least, it did for me. I’ve been trying to think up …
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 …
This was one of those projects that I started without any real direction or idea as to what I was about to do. I’m actually really happy with the outcome, considering I kind of just winged it…but those are always the best kind of projects 😉 Alexander McQueen Ivory/Black Clutch, $1,850 Photo Credit: Polyvore/Matchesfashion.com …
I was so close to buying one of these about a month ago – but then I forced myself to walk away, reminding myself that it could easily be DIY’d. I made this one with a thrifted Mens’ sweater that cost me an entire $4 at Goodwill, making it way less than most store bought …
