Meubelstoffen online 11 Easy And Cute DIY Choker Necklace Tutorials In case you haven’t noticed, chokers are back in style in a big way – and no, this isn’t an old post from 1997. Chokers, AKA necklaces that sit snugly around your neck rather than resting against your collar bones or cleavage, are edgy, cool, and make a pretty big statement. Chokers were huge in the ’90s and early 2000s – think the wiry tattoo style or black velvet versions with a little charm – but like so many other ~classy~ accessories from that time, they fell off our radar for a while.

How To: Make Typographic Gift Wrap » Man Made DIY | Crafts for Men « Keywords: gift, christmas, wrapping, gift-wrap This year, I vowed to only make or buy handmade holiday gifts for my friends and family, and I've kept to it so far. But wrapping these gifts in commercial paper didn't seem to make much sense, so I wanted to create some handmade gift wrap to match. I happen to think a gift wrapped in newsprint is actually quite attractive, and love the look of text on a package, but wanted to put in a little more effort. So I came up with a cool option that's clean, masculine, and maintains the typographic look of the newsprint. Once I figured it out, it was actually quite easy and quick - less than ten minutes per gift. Here's how to do it: Materials and Tools Brown craft paper or solid wrapping paperA used bookUtility knifePencilScissorsAlphabet templates, available in four typefaces at ManMadeDIY.com/downloadsTracing set-up, such as light source and clear glass or plastic (see below)Glue stick 1. 2. 3. 4a. 4b. 5. 6.

Luck of the Green Beer St. Patty’s Day Cold Process Soaps | Cold Process Soap Recipes Gather your ingredients: 2 Cups of Light Beer (we used Coors Light) 14 small plastic cups (5 fl. oz. each) Plastic Cups (5 fl. oz.) If you have never made cold process soap before, we strongly suggest getting a couple of basic recipes under your belt before diving in…working with beer is an advanced technique. PREP: The first step to a successful beer batch (in our opinion) is boiling flat beer. ONE: Melt and measure the Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Palm Oil, and Shea Oil. TWO: SAFETY UP! Then, measure out your lye (by weight) and beer (by volume) and slowly add the lye to the beer in 3 batches (pour a little lye and stir – repeat 2 more times). THREE: Slowly and carefully, add the lye mixture to the combined oils pouring down the side of the stick blender to avoid bubbles. FOUR: Separate the batch in half. Titanium Dioxide Slurry: Mix 1 teaspoon of Titanium Dioxide with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and mix with a mini mixer. SEVEN: Time to check on the “foam”.

57 Days to Go: Anthropologie Copycat | New Dress A Day Like last week’s Anthropologie clutch copycat (refresher here!) that I crafted with my most creative pal Sonya Nimri… Our Anthro-esque clutch! …we also worked on another piece that we scoped out in Anthropologie’s most current catalog!

And little side note…we’re gonna make two tops, one for each of us to don. We layered the options to get an idea of how everything would look… Layer it! …and then we got cutting! Snipped! We used the Anthropologie catalog page as a guide as we trimmed. Puzzle Pieces! Once all our pieces were cut, we did a Frankenstein number on them!! Call us Gene Wilder, yo! We attached all the pieces and put our new shirts on!! Team Stripes! Hello, how cute are these?? Half & Half The Anthropologie shirt retails for $78… Anthropologie’s shirt …and ours cost just a few bucks. New Shirt Face! Model Sonya! Wild Hair! Happy Friday!

Melmaria Designs DIY Anthropologie Inspired Top | Melmaria Designs Let’s preface this with a little story. I hope you like reading. Once upon a time, there was a girl who used Pinterest quite a lot. She loved browsing the travel, photography, DIY, food, and hair sections. One day, she found a very special pin. It was a photo of a woman standing with her back to the camera, wearing a top with a triangle insert of alternate fabric up the back. Anyway, I (okay, this story is about me) never got around to actually doing this DIY. So it inspired me to create my own shirt refashion DIY, especially after seeing these two shirts from Anthropologie. Aren’t they cute? DIY Anthropologie Inspired Top – What You’ll Need: A button-down, either from your closet or Goodwill. Wash, dry, and iron your shirt. Next, pull the shirt apart a little until you have a triangle-shaped space. Turn your shirt inside-out and pin your lace triangle to the reverse side of the shirt, lining up the lower edges evenly. Trim the lace edges and voila!

DIY FRIDAY: ADDING SLEEVES TO A SLEEVELESS DRESS (REFASHION TUTORIAL) These weeks are flying by -- somehow it's time for another round of DIY Friday! Lulu*s sent me this dress a few months ago, and although I totally loved it, I don't wear sleeveless tops, so it was super annoying to have to wear a jacket or a sweater over it all the time. We've been having a crazy heat wave here as well, so layers were completely out of the question. In an amazing stroke of good luck, I found a similar printed chiffon fabric at the LA fabric district, so I brought it home, lined it with some lightweight white cotton, and whipped up some sleeves for this dress. Now it's the perfect dress -- this silhouette is maybe my favorite ever for my body. So today I want to show you have to make a simple sleeve to add to a sleeveless dress -- it's so easy! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. *Note: This Lulu*s dress has an irregular arm hole, with the little notch at the collar bone.

DIY FRIDAY: WHITE EYELET DRESS REFASHION During the summer, I pretty much live in dresses and skirts. The problem is that most of the dresses in retail that are my style are just too short for me. But I've discovered an awesome little refashioning trick for dresses that are too short. It doesn't work for every dress, but I've done it to a ton of different dresses and and I love it. Here's the trick to adding length. Once you've sized up enough to get enough length, then comes the refashioning part -- because most likely the neckline, sleeves, waist, and darts now do not fit you. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. This dress also has a lining, but the lining is not attached to the dress at the sides, so the opening at the armpit allows them to be altered separately. Resizing the sides of the dress will make the arm hole smaller, so take in your sleeves a few inches as well so they will fit back nicely into the arm hole. Step 6. Step 7.
