hey there, studs

A few days ago I sourced these studs at a sketchy little leather supplier at Queen and Augusta in downtown Toronto. I got really excited and sacrificed one of my tank tops for a little DIY project.


The sacrificial tank top (Pardon the chalk marks. I like to stay organized.)


I'm so pleased with the results that I've already started studding a pair of my black skinny jeans. And after that, I've a mind to bedazzle a black leather purse. Someone really needs to stop me before I stud everything that I own - I mean it.

  4. Great job! Can't wait to see how the jeans end up. I think studding a purse would be fantastic.

    Also, in reply to your question on my blog, I didn't use a pattern for my skirt. Just took some inspiration from a dress I already own and had to fiddle around a bit to work out how to make the pleats :)
