DIY Project: Calendar Clutch

Okay, this DIY project was somehow fun :)
You can do it with your little sister :p

  1. Prepare: the cardboard of desk calendar, glue gun, flannel sheet, thin ribbon/rope
  2. Cut the flannel sheet to match the length (as seen on picture 2)
  3. Glue the flannel
  4. Insert ribbon to make a handle
Yeah this thing looks like unwearable, but it's just fun to create something new from unused items, hehe. I had the idea and feel like should do the project right away then, so this is it! :D
Tips: You can add flower brooch or gems or do some modifications to make it looks-more-like-a-clutch.
*The ribbon photoshop brush was downloaded from here. For a tips on using photoshop brushes, visit my article on February :)

DIY Project: Lace Cardigan

I have an oversized-stretchy-pink-dress, which is, "The more you wash it the more it become oversize!"
Not good at all to be worn.
Time to be creative!

I wanted to transform it to a sweet cardigan, soooo....
The result:

It took about 30 minutes to finish all the work, pretty simple, huh? I'm planning to add more laces at the sleeve but I guess it'll be too much.
Don't know whether I'm confident enough to wear it or not ;-)

Jeans Tote Bag

I like how people transform unused item to a useful one! I just found this great creativity by Re-Jeans (on Etsy). Visit the collections here :) Simple idea, but simplicity is always the best!

Argh sekarang nyesel banget kenapa beberapa minggu lalu gak jadi beli jeans2 murah di DTC. Cuma 15ribu. Emang rencananya mau bikin tas jins... tapi lalu kepikiran: paling2 cuma semangat ngedesainnya doang, ga ada pelaksanaan! Now I want that cheap jeans pleaseee to make my own jeans bag....
