DIY Gifts

HOLA EVERYONE! Christmas is approaching and so are the festive mood and the gifts. Oh, the gifts! I never have the money to buy gifts, so I make them ! And here's a blog for everyone that is broke like me ! 😁 There are sooooo many, so I might do a part 2 for this blog BTW! 

A Girls Survival Kit!
Normally this type of gift really costs so much money and half of the stuff the person doesn't really like... So make it yourself! Add in some mini shampoos,nail polish, little earrings, and name it ! ( In the picture it's mommy survival, but you get the idea!)


A Jar of Nice Quotes
I'd really enjoy getting this because I would have something encouraging to read every morning when I wake up. 



Plants In A Jar
This is sooo aesthetically pleasing in a vintage or pastel colored room ! Also, the jar protects the plants from getting harmed by whatever!






Mini Jar Frame
This is soooo cutie! All you need is a frame and a mini jar to put in anything from dried up flowers, to a charm, to sparkles!



Reused Light Bulb Gift
This is so Tumblry! Also, it is very ecological to reuse bulbs like this!



Ice Cream Sundae in a Box
ALSO TUMBLRY! This is really cool because everyone would care for ice cream! At least, I would ! 


DIY Tic-Tac-Toe
This is a great idea for kids and is really easy to bring everywhere especially during travel! Rocks and a little pouch!

Pictures In A Box
This is a really nice gift for family members or close friends. It's a nice way of displaying special moments!




DIY Card-Holder
So many ways to store cards! This one is very original! Not only playing cards can be stored, but pictures, quotes, jewelry, and so many more!  





DIY Candy Boxes
"Made with what?", you may ask. MATCH BOXES! So creative right ? All you need to do is spice up some old match boxes and give them a new life!

Small Touch-Ups for Pants Part 2

Sup Guys! Here's my blog on small touch-ups for pants! I'm making a second one because there is no end to transforming pants! 


1. Pompoms on Ends!
All you need to buy is a strand or pompoms and sew them on! This is so cute!




2. Covering Patches With Lace!
Personally I don't like very ripped up pants and this is the perfect way to cover it up aesthetically!


3. Markers And Lace
This one consists of drawing on your pants over lace so that the lace's print goes out on your pants!



4. Adding Studs to The Ends 
Stick'em on gurl ! That's all you have to do!

5. Lace on Ends
Add lace to the bottoms of your cuffed pants, making them cute and original!


6. Lace On Sides
Cut the sides, then sew on some lace!



7. Making Pants Look Used 
All you need is sandpaper and some rubbing to make your jeans look used! Ideally, you do this on the thighs or on the knees. 


THANK YOU! Please comment if you'd like me to do more blogs like this one!

Small Touch-Ups For Shorts

HEY EVERYONE ! It really feels like a long time since I wrote a blog ! Anyways, here is one about small touch-ups you can do to shorts. Obviously,if you have read my previous blogs on small touch-ups for pants you'll probably think: " I could also do this to shorts!" Yes, indeed, you can but with some... 
Here we go !

1. Half Patch
This one requires sewing: hand or machine! It is really easy to make. Just fond fabric, trace the side that you want to put it on and sew it on!


















2. Dip in Dye/Bleach 
I also mentioned this in the blog I did for pants! 






3. Fancy Pocketsessss
Yes, I am a LOTR fan! Ahahaha... Anyways! This one consists of sewing on some fancy printed fabrics over pockets or to replace them.
  


4. Galaxy Paint!
An other thing I love: Galaxy! I find it so pretty! All you have to do is paint!
Splash blue, navy, purple, white, and a little bit of pink! 

5. Fancy Ends
All you need to do is cut the ends or your shorts with a cool motif! I recommend to use a stencil that you prepare before cutting!




6. Lace On Sides
Cut a triangular shape on both sides, cut a rectangle of lace, sew under the part you cut and there you go! ( I say that you don't cut the exact shape of the triangle you cut out. Cut a little bigger horizontally!)




7. Embroidery
Now, this is verrrryyy long but looks really cool and pretty! I was actually wondering if I should put this or not, but I finally did!




8. PATCHES!
Lol! I probably get really annoying with my patches but what can I do?! They really add a touch of originality to the piece of clothing !



9. Drawing with LaceThis one is really nice ! Take a permanent pen and draw over the lace placed where your want the designs to come out!



THANKS GUYS!!!!!!!!!! HAVE A NICE WEEK!
