Tuesday D.I.Y

Don’t worry, dear readers, I didn’t give up customizing little T-shirts…

I just had to think about what I wanted to do. I reckoned my last DIY was not that extraordinary. I wanted to make up for it ! And guess what ? I bought some silver glitter so some crapy old t-shirt of mine would finally SPARKLE.

So basically I went to a craft and sewing superstore (yes an haberdashery) in Tooting Bec and bought some glitter to customize a very simple grey T to make it look like this beautiful crop top on the picture above.

So first, I drew a bow with the silver glittering gel on the top left of the T. I glue it on too so the glittering would stay put.

I bought a black and white rubbon and put it on the glittering bow.

It’s really easy to do and it doesn’t cost that much. That’s why I had a little money left to do other customizations.

I bought a cute rainbow colored ball of wool

I bought 70 cm of a stretch belt and a golden like buckle so I could make a proper belt.

And TA-DA !

It WILL be a perfect belt on a black dress or a t-shirt just like La Lionne inspired by Emmanuel Esther’ stuff
