DIY

Wednesday, 20 June 2012

 This one isn't really related to the studs that I used on a DIY, but however, I bought this shirt on sale for 5€ two years ago, without trying it on and it's quite horrible, because it has no shape whatesoever
 So I decided to cut off the sleeves and make it shorter and I really like the result! It's simple, so I'll be able to wear it with lots of different things and it's light, perfect for warm summer days :)
 Now this is the shirt that I used for the studs DIY. As you can see, it has a few holes in it and I normally just wear it to bed or gym anymore, but it's still one of my favourites. I decided that the holes wouldn't matter that much if I'd change it a bit myself..
 The first step was to cut off the sleeves, but not completely like with the other shirt. It's like a t-shirt now, only that the sleeves are flowy, which I really like
 I then cut off a part of the back, in the shape of a V. I'm crazy about shirts and dresses with naked backs, so I used this opportunity to build in another detail I love
 Finally, I added golden studs to both the shoulders and voilĂ , this is the result!

I'll probably be wearing it tonight when I go out, so I might get the chance to take outfit pictures with it! :)
What do you think about my DIY(s)? Do you like it/them?

 This is one of the few items I bought in Camden Lock. It's from a Second Hand shop and actually a men's t-shirt. (I think) It's a size L, so it really is huge on me who's a XS/small S, but I decided to give it a try and bought it for £10, which is approximately 13€. I love the colours and pattern! 
Of course, I knew that I wasn't going to wear it like that, the sleeves were like 3/4 sleeves for me and I could have easily worn it as a dress! So I grabbed our kitchen scissors, made some measurements here and there and..
.. voilĂ , this is the result! The holes on the sides where the sleeves used to be are huge, but worn with a bandeau underneath, it gives the whole look a special touch. I cropped it a lot, so that it is short, but you can only see my belly when I stretch. I really love the result - it's so colourful, summery.. perfect to be combined with black shorts, jeans or tight skirts!

What do you think, do you like it?

Since I've lately seen, a few, nice blouses without sleeves in different shops, but didn't feel like spending 20/30€ for one, I looked through my wardrobe and picked one of my white blouses and cut the sleeves off. I pinned some of the fabric under the arms together, but I think I'm gonna fix that properly by sewing! Do you like the result?

CROSS

Friday, 5 November 2010

I've been thinking about making myself a wooden cross which I'd paint black, but then I saw this at her blog:
A Lego-cross! I found that a really funny and kinda cute idea so I grabbed some Lego and here's my version:
I actually also wanted to make it with the "thinner" Legopieces, but since I couldn't find enough of them, I made it fatter, hehe. What do you think?

Still thinking about making the wooden one! Because if I don't want this one to break apart with every little shock, I gotta glue it, don't know if I want to do that, though..

I think that's enough for today, I'm gonna finish my friday with another episode of GG and then off to bed! See ya xx

chain-addict

Saturday, 26 June 2010

Some time ago, I bought tons and tons and tons (for altogether around 6€!) of chain but totally forgot it. I bought different kinds of chain & this evening, I was bored by sitting on the table, I finally made myself a sort of bracelet-ring-thingie, hehe :p aswell, I thread leather tape through one of the chains. These are the results:

I can wear them as necklace, belt or bracelet :)

Really like it, I just think that I should find a way to kind of fix the ring-part more, hmm.
Like it? x

EDIT:
I just got 25€ from my grandma, gonna save it all up for spain. I'll get 50€ from mum, 50€ from dad, I have around 80€ on my account +hopefully the ~25€ from KK'll arrive soon aswell. means: 50+50+80+25= 205€, waaaah :D:D

I'M UNIQUE

Saturday, 5 June 2010



Finally, I didn't cut the shirt off, I decided that I could just make a knot in it, etc :) On the back it says 'I'm unique' and on the front I just drew a huge, black heart :D
All you need to do that is:
-some random shirt
-special tissue-pens and colors
-ideasideasideas

I'm pretty bored at the moment, so I'm sitting in front of our computer, eating chocolate and going through onlineshops (boohoo, miss selfridge, missguided, new look..) I saw soo many pretty dresses, skirts and cute cropped shirts :D And boohoo.com isn't expensive at all! I feel like buying the whole shop, haha :p I remember having a white, size L shirt in my wardrobe, and I'm really thinking about cutting it off and drawing/writing something random on it.. like I said, I'm bored :D


(I'm sorry for the bad quality, but the pictures were soooo small, so I tried to pull them a little bit bigger..)

Yummi, Yummi, Yummi, I got Love in my tummy

Hello Sweethearts!
I'm really, really, reeeaaally sorry about my hugeee lack of posts D:! I just didn't feel like posting & didn't really have any good ideas/inspiration.
Thursday I went to my grandma's place with L & we sewed all afternoon long, pfuuuh :) Finally, grandma lent me her sewingmachine, yeeh :D That's also one of the reasons, why I haven't posted anything 'til now. I'm sewing every second I have time, it's so addictif (or with v?) :b
Yesterday some new stuff arrived, a book, nailpolish, shorts.. (amazon & KK) But no pictures now, my camera is dead, I have to wait 'til the batterie's full again, but I promise to take pictures then ;)
Today I went to Echternach and bought lots of stuff for sewing, etc. Kilos of chain and pearls and blabla :p

That's all for the moment! x

I don't like tuesdays.

Tuesday, 11 May 2010


(I don't like tuesdays, because I have: german, geo, moral, chemistry, spanish, physics, double math)
Huuu :D! This was my today's outfit (Not thaaat special, right?)
I had a quite good day, I missed the first tree periods because I had an appointment at the eyedoctor, and during math we watched a movie for the whole two hours, he :D

My plans for tomorrow (last day of school for this week!): school 'til 14:50, go to the post with a friend, to send a packet for KK, go back to school where I'll pick L up, bring my little brother to mama's work, take the bus to go to L's place.
Thursday: Take the bus with L, to go to my grandma's place, sew the whole afternoon! (telling you why later ;))


So: I'm really looking forward to tomorrow and thursday :D!

I think, I should definitely experiment more with different writings (fat/underlined/big/small, etc)

But you're not gonna reach my telephonee!

So this is the result of my last DIY! Like it? I love it :D

Saturday, 1 May 2010

So yesterday evening I started to change my shirt. I looked through magazines for pictures of swallows and then I practiced, practiced, practiced.

Then I drew tons and tons of swallows on the shirt, with a pencil. I think I'm later gonna count how many I drew :b After that, my left arm (I'm righty!) was literally dead.

And today I retouched ? the swallows with the special tissue-pen I bought. I'm not sure yet if I should let it like this or color them completely black. Anyway I haven't finished, so we'll see :)

Friday, 30 April 2010

Here I am! Back with a lot of inspiration for new DIY's! When I was at Echternach, I had to wait nearly a whole hour for my bus, so I decided to go through a shop, where you can buy lots and lots of stuff to do handicrafts with. I bought a pen to draw/write on tissue, big woodenpearls and.. this! I have seriously no idea what you call that in english, but you can see it on the picture, hehe. I have a big plan with this pretty thing, and it has nothing to do with reparing a clock or something ;) But, you'll see, you'll see..

and, remember when I bought this beautiful shirt? Well I didn't wear it at all 'til now! So I decided to fresh it up a little. When you look at the second picture, you're sure going to know, what exactly my plans are.. ;)

Looking at you is the only drug I need

Thursday, 29 April 2010

Hola chicas! How are you all today, on such a beautiful, warm, sunny day? I'm great :D I feel superhappy right now, also because of that awesome weather! It was around 26°C today! Still can't believe it.
Also today a skirt from KK arrived, which I've been waiting soo long :D Here it is;
isn't it cute?
Aaaaand, finally took a picture of the tissue I bought, I told you about;


the dots are a little bit bigger than a 50ct-piece :) I want to make me a highwaisted skirt out of it, or something similar.. :) But now, I'm off for a shower and then GNTM! Have a good evening, x

Yeah I'm a real big sinner, sometimes I eat my dessert before my dinner.

Friday, 9 April 2010



I'm really, really sorry, that I didn't post yesterday, didn't have any time! And also today I was really busy!
But this is, what my wednesday looked like; bought this cuteee shirt, I fell in love with it immediately!
Then; a picture with my brother, being silly :b
+ The new nailpolish I showed you :) & my bag! :D I still have to make some small corrections, but what do you think about it? :)

And watch this, I love them!




You had a good girl, good girl, but didn't know how to treat her, t-t-t-t-treat her!

These are some pictures I took outside + some stuff I bought at Echternach :)
love the color of the nailpolish!
+ new shampoo, GRAZIA magazine, which I absolutely fell in love with!, big and small envelopes (guess, why) and chain, for my bag. I finished french (thanks, wikipedia!) and I'm now gonna sit down, eat chocolate eggs and try to finish my bag, adding the chain. (Without my strong daddy!)
See you later, alligator. x

Oh and; aren't my socks cool? :D


no movie ideas?

Yesterday evening, when I was watching those DIY-videos I told you about, I had again a huge inspirationflash :b It was already 23:30, but I just had to make something! Remember the skirt I made on my own? Well I still have a rest of tissue, so I decided to make me a small hand bag. It's nearly finished, I just need to add some chain :)

So my plans for today are:
- go to Echternach by bus & buy golden chain
- go to the post, also in E. and inform me about the costs and stuff for Kleiderkreisel.
- finish my bag
- hopefully see V again since a week!

And the weather is SO nice! I think I'll take some pictures outside now :)!

What are your plans for today?

'do these stairs go up or down?'

Monday, 5 April 2010

Just a small, very quick post before I go to bed. I discovered a pretty great website with lots of DIY-tutorials and thought about sharing that site with you :) it's called threadbanger. Especially one tutorial made me wanna also do it; this one. They show you how to make your jeans skinnier & finally just that they fit you better and later they bleech them and the result is awesome! Since the only jeans I buy are Cheap Mondays, 'cause they're the only ones who fit me, they're pretty expensive, 50€, I think I'll just buy a cheaper one and try to change it, when I have time :) More about that later.

Also I wanted to ask what kind of girls-movies do you know, like Wild Child, Mean Girls, LOL, which I should watch. I finally found a good website to watch movies for free on internet, just that I never know, which movie I should watch. So tell me, what are your faves? (They can also be other movies than typical 'girls-movies' ;))

Oh and, I always forget to say; I went to the new H&M in Town, some weeks ago, and I gotta say that they have pretty amazing stuff there! There I finally found my dotted tights!

But now, good night! x

I see it all Pink.

Saturday, 13 February 2010


I painted the key with pink nailpolish & that's the result. I think it looks pretty cool :)
