WARDROBE EDITING. » Edit Your Life, Part 5: Your Wardrobe. Quick note: Every Wedneday is Simplicity Day on Zen Habits, and for the next few weeks, these posts will be a series called “Edit Your Life,” looking at ways to simplify different parts of your life. I’m a former newspaper editor, and one of the things I learned was to edit brutally (no sarcastic comments about why I don’t do that with my blog posts). Cut out everything that’s not necessary, and you’ve got a more meaningful story. A cleaner closet. Diy: colorblock sandals. Inspired by this wrapped tribal choker project from the ever-fierce Aimee at SwellMayde, I gave some plain brown platforms a little facelift: I wrapped the embroidery thread per Aimee's tutorial, opting just knot the ends tightly to secure them at each end: This is such a neat, simple technique for updating accessories.
Why not try it on your sandal straps, belts, purse handles, and various pieces of jewelry?
