I have to be honest: my favorite type of post is a DIY post. Finding something I like, then seeing, if just by chance, I could make it myself, well it’s a real joy. Recently I did it here when I wanted a patched shirt. I also made my own off-the-shoulder shirt as seen here,Continue reading I Love a DIY Post!
It seems that every time I enter a Zara store I see more and more patches. They’re so fun and whimsical, yet nothing I’d ever spend more than $$ on–plus, this is like the easiest DIY ever. I know I am always saying my DIYs are the easiest ever, but I guess that should readContinue reading DIY: Patched Denim Shirt
Isn’t it the worse when your favorite shoes get all scuffed up? That was the case with my favorite brown booties. They’re not made of real leather, so when I scuffed the front a bit too much, the faux material lifted off. Yet, I love the comfort and style of this boot and was notContinue reading DIY: Painting Scuffed Shoes
I’ve been eyeing embellished jean jackets for a while now. Also, I have this bleached out jean jacket that doesn’t get much wear. (The bleach job was another DIY project from when I first started the London College of Style program. I bleached it out on the beach rocks of Couer d’Alene at my sister’sContinue reading DIY Embellished Jean Jacket
Découpage is the craft of gluing cut outs onto another surface. When I saw this Découpage purse, I felt inspired to create something similar. The black purse I picked up from the 4th of July Spirit Lake Fair in the town park. The honest truth was I needed another black bag like I need aContinue reading DIY Découpage Purse
I seem to be collecting tees a the same rate as collectible magnets from travel destinations. I really can’t seem to stop–especially now that my style is taking on a more casual state with the increase wear of tennies each day. Regardless, there is something I often do to the tee shirts I collect: IContinue reading DIY: 3 Tee Shirt Hacks
Pic via my Instagram feed @krembdelakremb This tassel bag was not easy. I’ve come to the conclusion I like easy DIY projects. Don’t get me wrong: I’m very pleased with how this tassel bag turned out, but I could have made my life a lot easier if I would have just punctured the leather. WithContinue reading DIY Tassel Bag–What Not to Do!
1. Gather the supplies: For this DIY Tassel Heels project, I need to find this simple style of sandal where the back heel buckle slips out of the holder. I found a pair of Steve Madden sandals on sale at TJ Maxx that were perfect. At my local craft store, Joann’s, I picked up someContinue reading DIY Tassel Heels
I’ve had this pair of boots that season after season weren’t getting worn. If I wanted a cowboy look, I’d always wear my mom’s cowboy boots. (I’ve only posted these boots one for a Fab 40s collab.) Then, after success with my fringe sandals and my trimmed mini skirt, I thought to myself: maybe theseContinue reading DIY Trimmed Boots
For some reason I’ve been wanting to make these little doily bowls for a while. It’s quite silly how easy these little bowls are to make. I’m mean, it’s probably the simplest DIY project out there. And now, I have four new cute bowls about the house to fill with those random left items thatContinue reading DIY: Doily Bowls
Have something too short? Just add pom poms! I’ve had this really cute Guatemalan fabric skirt since last summer. It has almost been perfect except for the length. While I usually don’t mind wearing a short hem, for some reason this skirt has always made me self-conscious. I haven’t been willing nor ready to giveContinue reading DIY: Add Pom Poms
I finally realized it’d have to be a DIY Ostrich bag. If there’s one thing you might be realizing about me, it’s that I’m very persistent. And, if it has to do with getting a stylistic idea in my closet, I’m doubly persistent. This has been the case with Shana’s, of The Mom Edit, awesomeContinue reading DIY Ostrich Feather Bag
