DIY3 - leftover jeans



In my previous DIY post, i snipped the legs off my long jeans to make it short. I didn't want to waste the rest of the jeans so I decided to make a tote bag with the leftovers!

Surprisingly I had enough denim for 2 bags (1 for each leg) so yup, i'm selling one of them! (Check the label "Shop DIY")

Difference:
Tote bag 1: the strap is thinner.
Tote bag 2: the strap is thicker.
I'm fine with both so if you're interested in buying, choose one of the two, i'll use the other one.
Actually i can't make up my mind on which one to keep hehe

DIY2 - long jeans short


I actually planned to destroy my black jeans (as stated in my previous post) but my mum reminded me that I still need it for praticum. So I found another jeans in my wardrobe which i think i bought in 2006 and it is still brand new. i forgot all about it hahaha. my mum said this jeans is quite costly but i snipped it off anyway. it's more worth it to snip it off cause i will now wear it!

This is also inspired by a tumblr pic but blah. it's a world of a difference hahaha. heck it's still nice, no?

BEFORE:

AFTER:


If you're wondering what i did with the legs of the jeans, I'm making a tote bag! It's enough for 2 tote bags actually. I'm halfway done with one.. i'll post it up when i'm done with the second one.
P.s i'll be selling the second one!

DIY1 - cut it bead it



I found this t-shirt in my wardrobe, stained and neglected. I think the last time i wore it was 2-3 years ago. I almost threw it away.. thankfully i was too lazy to clear my wardrobe.

I snip the collar off and made it off shoulder. Cut the front into strips and strung the beads. It's inspired from a tumblr pic :)
Getting inspired is one thing, completing it is another. :)
