DIY Zipper Love

I love zippers! They are so versatile!

There are a lot of refashions where adding only an exposed zipper changes the whole look and gives it a new and a bit edgier look.
Today I will show you some inspiration and accessories you can make using this ordinary item.

This is a pic of a simple flower you can use for almost anything – brooch, ring, bracelet, you can put it on a headband, necklace – anywhere!

Follow this tutorial to make the zipper rose (out of the whole zipper) and here is another way where you first cut it up into smaller pieces.

Here is another version. I do it by sewing a loose thread first, pulling it gently and then making a circle, sewing it together as I go, but you can just take your glue gun and start making a desired shape. Guess it’s much quicker.

But my favourite ring is this (tutorial)! 🙂

And the bracelet I absolutely adore wearing. I didn’t use any tutorial, I just looked at the pictures and followed the lines.

I found this you tube tutorial only later.

Now that you’ve seen what I’ve done here is a little collage full of inspiration of what else you could do. If you click on the second collage it will lead you to tutorials to all of the 12 bracelets. 🙂

I really hope some of you will take the time and create your own little art from the zippers! If you do, let me know! 😉

Have a great day and don’t forget – I’m also on Bloglovin’ now! =)

OOTD Teacher’s Dinner New Wedges

The school year ended so all the teachers from my school gathered and we had dinner. It was really fun and nice to se everyone dressed up instead of the work clothes we usually wear (comfty jeans and a tee).

I got these great wedges for a wedding I’ve reacently been to. I wore them with a dark blue, lace dress with an open back.
I wanted to do a more relaxed look with them so I wore them to the dinner. They have 13 cm, but are really comfortable to wear and you could dance in them all night!

I wore them with orange skinny jeans and a grey top. I don’t know if you can see, but they also have an open back. I find that really attractive. Even more than a short skirt. Like if you agree! 😉
Anyway, I found these earrings on sale and had to have them. I don’t usually wear earrings like that, but I feel really fancy with them. 🙂
I had orange lipstick and I put my hair up in a ballerina bun and that’s it! I think it’s really summer like and fun and I felt good wearing it!

Hope you like it! 🙂

Also, I discovered this new love for wedges and I started buying only them! Haha
How do you style your wedges? I would like to see… 🙂

DIY Paperclip Earrings

So basically, I’m repeating a post from way before because I didn’t put a tutorial in for these earrings.

Here it is. I really wear them quite a lot and get nice compliments for them.

All you need are paperclips, thread and glue.I put some beads in.

Let your imagination run free! Use colours, make a rainbow, make a different shape, criss-cross the thread or make it nice and neat.

Have a nice evening everyone! =)

Groznica subotnje večeri

Konačno naspavana i poletna (pogotovo s četverodnevnim odmorom) danas sam se osjećala posebno radišnom i željnom kreativnog stvaranja tako da će danas biti 3 DIY uratka. 🙂

1. Kako sam si nedavno kupila traper jaknu (Njuškalo je super stvar! Amadeus traper jakna, praktički nova – 20kn) htjela sam neki ukras za nju. Zamislila sam si kombinaciju ljetne šarene haljinice, traper jakne i velikog cvijeta na jakni. Rezultat:

Dakle napravila sam cvijet kao broš, ali može se nositi na više načina. Može se staviti na gumicu za kosu, na neku špangicu ili traku za kosu i tako maksimalno iskoristiti.

2. Obožavam patentne zatvarače i svašta raditi iz njih. Danas sam se odlučila na narukvicu.

3. Idući je DIY koji mi je duže bio na mislima i danas sam se konačno prihvatila posla. Naušnice od šarenog konca i s perlicama.

Moguće ih je napraviti u raznim oblicima (srce, krug, kvadrat…), raznim bojama, a špagica se može vezati u raznim smjerovima i tako tvoriti različite, zanimljive motive.

 

Danas sam inače uživala radeći ništa. Tko ne voli takve dane?! Cijeli dan rezerviran samo za odmor i crafts. Nešto sam i šivala i izrađivala nakit, ima još puno toga za pokazati. Također sam opet bila po Second Handovima i naišla na dobre stvari, a sutra se spremam (konačno) na Hrelić. Jeeej! 😀

Kako vi provodite svoj produženi vikend?
