DIY Cut Out T Shirts. There's nothing sexier than a cut out back for summer. And it transitions well into fall. I know that seems forever away sitting here in MN with a 110 degree heat index. But having been in fashion retail for over a decade you get use to thinking ahead. In a month stores (even in the south) will start getting coats in! So I'm trying to make things I can wear now and for the next few months. You could easily layer these tops with a fun colored tank top, t-shirt, or long sleeve shirt. Or just wear it bear for a sexy surprise. The above photo would be an easy DIY, just cut across the back of a baggy t shirt and either leave the edges raw or turn under with a sewing machine and secure it on the sides by tacking (backstitching in place).

The above picture of the button down top I think would be harder to DIY because it's made out of woven materials, but looks so cool it would be worth the work! Here's a great video tutorials I found.

I have very vivid memories of walking into a bead store for the first time, almost 15 years ago, and being overwhelmed by the million and ten ideas that filled my mind.

I was immediately hooked on the concept of transforming simple and unexpected elements into something beautiful and wearable. That moment was the catalyst for my eventual path into jewelry design and craft – my higher calling, if you will. Today’s tutorial takes me back to my first foray into jewelry making, where I’ll show you how to make two delightful bracelets using the same basic component.

Get inspired and have fun! For single, adjustable gold tube bracelets, you’ll need: Start by cutting the knotting cord into 2 12 inch pieces. And now, all that’s left is the sliding closure! . . . and bring the top cord under both the bottom and middle overlapping strands through the loop, into a knot. Repeat the same step on the right side. Continue to make 5-6 more knots. Trim away any excess cord. Layer and enjoy.

S+S x Paige Denim Ombre Denim. Ombre denim is everywhere right now. Look to any DIY blog worth it’s salt and there are dip dyes galore. But buckets (at least indoors,) can be so intimidating! Today, I’ve partnered up with one of my absolute favorite denim brands, Paige Denim, to show another way to achieve the ombre look… no bucket required! (I don’t know about any of you, but living in New York and not having a back yard, a bucket full of dye or bleach would be one massive disaster.) We’ll get the same look (possibly better as this gives you more control,) using spray bottles (each filled with a different level of dye.) It’s still messy, but it’s a bit more approachable for those of us without an outdoor workspace!

Acid Washed Tees. A while ago I accidentally got bleach on my favorite T-shirt. And some of you recommended that I bleach it out. So I finally did. And I love it! And I love the 80s. And the 80s are back. So I made some for the kids too. And now everything is totally rad and awesome over here. This is super easy to do. The details…. • This isn’t truly “acid” washed; just laundry bleach. . • Do NOT wet the fabric before spraying (tried it). Most importantly….have fun experimenting! Every shirt is totally different. Just like these munchkins. (I promise he’s really a goofball. Hope you had a nice holiday weekend! How to Acid Wash Black Jeans: 9 steps. T-shirt DIYs. Drop Waist V-neck T-shirt Dress DIY.
