sequin dress DIY and S.T Collection adds

January 3, 2011~ DIY DREAM HOUSE

hello everyone! I hope you had a wonderful christmas and new years!
for my DIY project i made a sequin dress to wear for new year’s eve.
i bought some sequin fabric from Joann’s

and found this cut up gray cardigan in my closet.

then i just made a simple tank top dress pattern
and added the sleeves like the dress i did here.

and the after:




i don’t know about you but i love it!
and you know how i told you i was going to make headbands
for my store S.T Collection?
well i made one as a preview and added 2 other items as well.
Hopeless Romantic Top



Flower Blossom Necklace



and a Mink Me Fur Headband

it’s a genuine mink fur with jewel embellishments on top
and two gold leaves on the side.

I’m in love with all of these, especially the headband.
I’m very tempted to keep it for myself!
i’m working on making other headbands right now so stay tuned!

    You're so amazingly talented. Those pieces look great!
    I'm jealous… there's this top I'm eyeing at Anthro and I would LOVE to know how to make it myself, but that's never going to happen

    I bought that same fabric to make a dress for Halloween. I had such a hard time with it. Did your sewing machine needle have a hard time sewing through the sequins like mine did?
