Cardi clips!
Short blurb today (just got back from a wedding) - I was looking for the clothes from GLEE and came across
this tutorial to create your own Emma-esque cardi clips and it was super easy too! I just needed clip-on earrings, chain, 2 jump rings and some jewelry pliers!
Here are Emma's:
So cute! :)
That's kind of neat! I would be scared to cut up a sweater like that, but if one of my sweaters shrink too much in the wash, I could turn it into a shrunken cardigan! Thanks for the link :)
ReplyDeleteWow, she cut up her sweater vs. just using a cardigan?
ReplyDeleteHave you seen Stylepint's or Kerry's blog? Stylepint did a tutorial a while back (http://stylepint.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/diy-part-ii-sweater-clip/) and Kerry made a clip too (http://littlenashua.wordpress.com/2010/07/12/adventures-in-thriftstores/).
Yah, wow I would think to just use a cardigan! Really cute though.
ReplyDeletePetiteXXS, PAG, C&P - Thanks ladies! I have yet to feel confident enough in my sewing skills to refashion an existing sweater into a cardi, but kudos to her! I just wanted sparkly cardi clips :)
ReplyDeletePAG - Thanks for the links! I love the pearls and owls that Stylepint did and Kerry's blog is a good read :)
You're very talented. I love all your DIYs. I am thinking about doing the LOFT ruffles sweater but I am afraid it's going to fail.
ReplyDeleteWhat a good DIY. I love cardi-clips and it's cool to see different ways people them! =)
ReplyDeleteThanks PetiteLittleGirl - don't be afraid to fail! Just attach the ruffles with a few stitches and if you don't like it, you can always take them out and your cardi will be the same as before :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Stylepint - I love your owl / pearl cardi clips!
so i just started watching GLEE...well now i'm up to date...but after seeing Emma wear cardi clips, i totally want one too! I dont care if ppl say it's a bit librarian/old lady.
ReplyDeleteI love Emma from Glee! Though I haven't been DVRing new episodes. Anyways, cute clips!
