J.Crew sequin stripe boatneck tee DIY

my inspiration: J.Crew sequin stripe boatneck tee $78

right when i saw this shirt, i was like "wait! i have a shirt EXACTLY like that!"

so starts my DIY.  in my closet:

what you'll need:

striped top

2 sequin decorative trims (hobby lobby $1.99 each)

scissors

liquid stitch

best part of this is NO SEWING needed! yipee, woohoo, Lord have mercy!

after:

you can't really tell in certain lighting like this picture below

but with the right angle/lighting you can see a subtle glamour to a casual tee.

i didn't like the j.crew version at first because the stripes wern't as prominent since the sequins were on top of it.  but now that i did the black sequin on black stripe and how the sequins are not that noticeable, i think i like the j.crew version a lot too.  i have another shirt exactly like this tee in red so i might do the clear sequins on that.  which do you prefer?

and LAST DAY to get FREE SHIPPING on all the headbands at S.T Collection!

instructions:

1. squeeze liquid stitch from one side to the other.

2. lay the sequin trim on top and press.  cut the remaining trim.

3. lay the shirt on a hard surface with the sequin part touching the surface and

put something like a book or something heavy on top of the shirt.

4. let it air dry overnight.
