DIY To-Do List
I have a whole big stack of diy projects planned. I usually try to pick projects that use items I already have. Some diy projects can get pretty costly…it doesn’t make sense to spend more on a project (just so you can do it yourself) than you would paying for something similar in the stores.
Here’s some projects that I hope to accomplish in the very near future:
I want to take this necklace I got from Forever 21 and turn in into something similar that Alicia did here.
This multi-chain necklace looks totally doable with extra necklaces that I have around the house.
I just need to pick up some bright fabric paint to turn this striped top into this one from J. Crew.
I’m on the lookout at the thrift stores for t-shirts to do this to and pants to do this to.
These ladies at A Beautiful Mess have tons of great diys…I want to try this out, but I haven’t decided what kind of stamp to do.
Love Meagan has the cutest peplum t-shirt diy!
Kayla and Merrick are always making great graphic t-shirts with fabric pant and freezer paper. I picked up the paper, but I’m not sure about the design…maybe one like this.
And I have a whole lotta garments to alter and hem…
It’s just a few things…but if you have any magical elves who help you around the house, feel free to send them my way when you’re done!
Linked with Fashion Friday!
wow…those should keep you busy until fall.
another quick peplum idea – if you have a cropped top, add a belt to your natural waist line…the effect is a flared/peplum look. 
i think it looks best when using a cropped blouse. try it!
I’m so going to try this! Thanks for the tip!!
I am totally doing that first necklace–I have a lot of vintage gold-tone chain necklaces that need updating. Think they would look really cute with peasant blouses and embroidered tops.
Hope you post them when you’re done!
love it!
fun project list! I like adding the bright paint to striped top idea.
Fingers crossed that it turns out!
Great list of projects. I want to try the t-shirt DIY project now.
I’m wearing that sailboat tee today! I LOVE it. You should totally make one.
Love all of your projects.
