...love Maegan : Fashion, DIY, Home, Lifestyle: Embellished Collar DIY ~ Los Angeles

Collars and embellished collars have been making their rounds on the internet and blogs for the past couple of years now. I think we can point our fingers at Miu Miu and their pretty kitty & swallow collars for starting the trend. But because I thought I saw so many refashioned collars and collar necklaces floating around, I purposely did not do a DIY for one. You know I don’t like to be a copycat. Apparently however, a Look 4 Less reader was on the hunt for a DIY embellished collar and couldn’t find any that suited her. So I offered a hand and thought I’d give it my own spin using faux pearls, vintage rhinestone earrings & buttons, as well as vintage aurora borealis beads from an old broken necklace {as I did for my encrusted V-neck DIY}. *NOTE* Once embellished, your shirt will have to be dry-cleaned or carefully hand-washed and hung dry. Here’s What You’ll Need… * A blouse with a nice collar. * Faux pearls in 2-3 sizes. * Needle/Thread/Scissors Steps… Voila! Have Fun!

The Burlap Bag - High Quality Handmade Goods Shop - Austin Texas March 1, 2012 by Lauren I saw a "trick" online and thought "Weird! I wonder if that really works!" So I tried it. Yes, you can indeed shave the pills off of your sweaters and jackets and any other article of clothing that is pill-y. ***EDIT EDIT! We started with the top part of this jacket… look at how clean it is! Enjoy your pill-less life! EDIT— yes… I know you could just buy an electric pill shaver thing.

Easter DIY | Tic Tac Toe Game My apologies for posting this so late! I had wanted to share this before Easter but time got away from me. Maybe it's a crafty DIY you can make on Easter day! Without further ado, here is my Easter Tic Tac Toe game tutorial! What you'll need: a wood plaque (I got mine from Michael's for 99 cents)polymer clayacrylic paints in Easter colorsexacto knifepaint brushessandpaper or sanding block Tip: You can make this kid-friendly by swapping the polymer clay for Crayola Magic (no baking required) Start by sanding painting your wood plaque so it's smooth and won't leave splinters. Once your plaque dries, it's time to add the Tic Tac Toe squares. Roll out some white clay into a 1/2 inch thick log. Roll each piece into a ball. Next, pinch 1/2 of the pieces at the top (these will be your bunnies). Roll out a smaller log about 1/4 inch thick. Roll out each ball and flatten. I chose to add a small pin in the bottom of each game piece. Once they're baked and cooled, it's time to paint!
