since pinterest has taken precedence over how many of us spend our free time, i will assume you have probably stumbled across several phenomenal diy projects. if you haven’t, start browsing! it’s amazing what people come up with. every time i browse through pinterest i think about how much money i could save if i master some of these projects.
fashion trends like macrame bracelets and color-blocked tops can all be made by hand. all you need is time (funny right?) and a little creativity. so call the sitter, grab some supplies and make martha stewart proud! the best thing about a fashionable diy project is the end result is for you!
take a peek at some of our fave fashion diy projects!

neon rhinestone necklace
my fabulous friend kelly hockenberry loves the look of dannijo necklaces but didn’t love the idea of spending hundreds of dollars on a single piece of fashion jewelry. instead she hit a local thrift shop, bought a vintage rhinestone necklace and colored the stones with neon nail polish. the end result was just as gorgeous but way more affordable.
envelope clutch
and last but not least, who couldn’t use a bright yellow clutch in their handbag collection. for instructions - http://www.stylescrapbook.com/2011/03/diy-yellow-clutch.html
