Welcome to DYI for your weekend! And seeing as though we have an overcast one ahead of us in Columbus, Ohio, this will be the perfect project to brighten it up! It's Spring and inevitably, that means florals, even if Miranda does say "Florals....for spring....how ground breaking...." - The Devil Wears Prada.
One floral trend I'm loving this year is the skinny floral belts seen across the runways at Rochas & J.Crew.
Style it over your favorite jeans, a cardigan or if you are feeling really daring, a spring jacket. It'll set you back less than $10 but leave you feeling like a million.
Materials:
1. 2 inch wide grosgrain ribbon fit to your own measurements.
2. 2 or more silk flowers selected from your local craft store...I'm a fan of the selection at Michaels, or if you happen to live near a Flower Factory, even better.
3. Scissors
4. needle & thread - thread should match the color of the ribbon.
Assembly:
1. Measure ribbon to desired length, I recommend leaving enough to tie into a bow in the back, this usually looks best when the tails are left long.
2. Stitch the silk flowers onto the belt slightly off-center in the pattern you wish and VOLA!
This project takes about 10-15 minutes to put together. Enjoy it :)
Until the next Story or Trend....
