DIY envelope clutch
(vintage romper, river island feather headband) I’ve been wanting an oversized clutch for a while now, especially since I laid eyes on that Celine clutch shot by Tommy Ton for style.com. Its minimalism is so beautiful. Then, I saw the Clare Vivier La Pochette on ofakind.com and instantly knew what my next DIY would be.
Faux Braided Bangle Bracelet
I called this "faux" braided because it looks like your typical braid, but actually isn't. I've had this idea in my mind for a while; I've been contemplating ways to use thin metal bangles that I never use anymore. When the crew at Lion Brand asked me if I'd like to try out some of their yarn, I saw that they had this really interesting "ribbon yarn" and knew it would be perfect for this project. I love trying out new materials that aren't common (or that I haven't used before) so thank you to Lion Brand for letting me try it out! Of course, after I made the first bracelet, I had to go digging through my stash and try it out with some leather cord and satin ribbon. I also love how this particular way of wrapping and weaving creates a subtle chevron look. Supplies: - 4 thin metal bangles (or less/more, depending on the thickness of each bracelet and your desired look) - Measuring tape, scissors, Scotch tape - Any kind of flat fiber of your choice, such as ribbon or leather cord. Enjoy!
Fabric Wrapped Scarf Holder
I know summer is barely over, but I can't stop thinking about autumn. It's my favorite season, so of course my collection of scarves has been slowly growing. For the past couple of months, I've been trying to figure out ways to organize my room and closet. This is one solution, at least for the scarves! It's also super inexpensive to make. See how I made it below: Supplies: - Shower curtain rings...quantity is up to you! 1) Cut the fabric into roughly half inch thick strips, as long as you can make them. 2) Tightly wrap strips of fabric around the curtain rings, applying hot glue every so often. 3) If a strip of fabric is too short, simply glue the end down and continue wrapping with another strip. 4) Keep going until you're all done! 5) After figuring out how you'd like to position your rings (I decided to do 4 rows, 6 columns, with the columns alternating denim and leather) tightly tie the rings together using the cord of your choice. Hang your scarves through the rings!
