DIY: HEART SWEATER

Here is a little tutorial on how to make your own heart sweater.. just in time for Valentines day :)

What you'll need:
Paper to trace a heart on
Good scissors
Needle & thread
Pins
Fabric of your choice
Sweater

  
Trace out 1 side of the heart  

Fold fabric in half and place the paper on the fold. Pin it. 
Start cutting out the pattern. 


Safety pin the heart in place. 

Sew the heart to the sweater. I chose to have a lighter color thread to make it look playful. 

VOILA! 


SWEEEET

DIY: STUDDED SHOES

Ok I bought these plain black loafers at the thrift shop couple weeks ago. They're actually a half size too small so I won't be able to wear them that often :( but decided to revamp them anyway. 

I put together a little DIY to show you how I did them. 

WHAT  YOU'LL NEED

PUSH BACK THE PRONGS ON THE STUD. DO NOT TRY TO DO IT WITH YOUR TEETH. I REPEAT, DO NOT TRY TO DO IT WITH YOUR TEETH. OUCH :(

START GLUING THE STUDS AT THE FRONT OF THE SHOE-- IT MAKES IT A LOT EASIER.
THIS IS ABOUT A 1/4 OF THE WAY DONE. 

DONE :)

CHEVRON WALL

I'm in the process of re-doing my entire room. I decided to paint the walls all white to brighten it up and make it feel open. I wanted a pop of color somewhere so I decided to chevron my wall behind my television.  It actually is pretty hard. I'm really not good at math but it was needed to measure out my lines for the pattern.  I think I did a pretty damn good job considering I was rushing the entire time because I was ready to get it finished.  

Measuring off and taping the lines were so annoying.  The outcome was great though.. minus some leakage under the tape where I didn't properly seal the tape.  I'm not too concerned though considering nobody ever comes in my room.. haha. 

Do you like? :)

STUDDED A

Today I was at hobby lobby looking for paint for a project i'm doing and found these paper mache letters that i instantly loved.  I then focused on finding the paint i wanted for the letter.  I found a sea glass color that i thought would be really pretty.  I was right.. cause i love it.

Made a quick little DIY out of it.
