Beachbag! (scarf and placemats)

Unfortunatly it was harder then it looks (then i imagined) for a simpler version you could use safety-pins or studs instead of sewing. 

Sew one side of the scarf (or double folded scarf or stroke of fabric) to the inside of one of the placemats. leave enough space open on top but not too much. Then stitch the other side to the inside of the other placemat (need to fold the other inside out and this is what was harder then i thought) Then add things to the scarf or bag to make it even more YOU and..done! :) Enjoy the summer! :)

Charm painting! 

Give your charms a total makeover! It's really fun to do and the results were way above expectations:) I've used metallic markers, nailpolish, glitterglue, oilpaint and tiny wooden sticks to transform these charms into new and unique beauties. My eyes went a little bit twitchy at the end from the minuscule concentration and i also inhaled a bit too much nailpolish fumes, but other then that i really had fun experimenting and decorating these charms!:) Favorite ingredient was actually nailpolish! so gather all of them an start designing! Most of all have fun!

1nici trend alert: Big headbands!

The trend is almost " the bigger the better". I personally don't hate it..but letting myself be inspired a bit more by Dolce&Gabbana (royal type, and artisanal type-headwear) instead of Prada  (big&high but more solid/monotone) or Chanel (big but flat and also monotone). 

Buy a basic (plastic) headband and decide the direction....sweet, big, royal, high etc. Then either put filling sponge on top of the headband and sew a sleeve, or grab some lace and/or jewels and start enlarging  and decorating the headband beyond recognition en most of all...to fit your mood, personality & style!:) 

The endings can be a bit tricky but i'm sure you will figure something out..either with tread, glue, tape , sewing or even metallic caps. Any trouble? Feel free to let me know and i will be sure to try and help out! Good luck, and mostly have fun!!!:)

Belt bags - Easy fashion-up!

Wanna stay in fashion? Even if you once said you would never ever wear a fanny pack? ;) That's why i call these belt bags, you can totally be into them it's ok:) And you can wear them on hip, but also on waist or across your body.
All you have to do, is make combinations of your favorite (small) purses and find matching belts.

Permanent: Sew the belt to the back of the bag (at least the parts where bag and belt end). Make sure the closing is not hidden there unless its a super elastic belt! (otherwise you cant open & close anymore;)

Medium permanent: Make one or two tunnels the back of the bag matching the size of the chosen belt and done! And don't worry..you will not see them while wearing the bag like normal and when the trend is over you can just remove them again!:)

SUPER Temporary: Wanna make it even less permanent? Maybe just for one evening? Attach the belt on the back of the belt with two big safety pins! :)

TIP: A lot of times the bag strap is removable, you could also use it as matching belt! Especially if it's adjustable in length (most straps are!:)

Extra: Attach matching bag tags and or jewelry to the bag and/or belt. And check the fun accessory tip in photo...twist your hair and put a ring in between the elastic at the end:)
