painting this wouldve taken all of 5 minutes but noooo i had to take hours to haphazardly embroider it even though i have no idea what im doing
some patches i made this week :P
Monster energy bracelet I made (*^▽^)/★*☆♪
FIRST IS: GIR USHANKA HAT!!
I'm so proud of it ;3; the back looks a lil rough but it's so awesome and kewl and it fits my head perfectly!! I upcycled it from this hat here by hot topic that I traded someone for:
SECOND IS: STUDDED BRACELET!!
u can kinda see it on my wrist in the hat pics but here's a picture of it by itself:
everything about the bracelet was put together myself, and I made the studs out of the aluminum of a coke can! tell me if u guys want a tut <3
todays my first day wearing it to school with that new addition, hoping i dont get dress coded for the phrasing cus it’s actually one of my favorite diys so far..
EXCUSE THE LITTLE WHITE SPECKS EVERYWHERE they’re from my fabric scraps xP
hand painted each patch myself, including the MLP and Emily the Strange patches (those characters belong to their respective properties) and both of the pins i found on the floor outside!
THE “RAWR!” PATCH I FINISHED THE OTHER DAY IS DEF MY FAVORITE, it’s so sparkly and glittery x3
made my first patch :]
clymene moth (screen print I made with a hand-painted screen!)
i have carpel tunnel now
followed through w this
cos fuck em
did it lol
patch pants progress and punk shit?? who knows
whenever i show people i know my diy projects i usually end up getting some form of "i wish i could do that.", and each time im confused because, you can.
i cut up old pairs of jeans for fabric, use wall paint samples, hand sew with a sewing kit i found in the house and have slowly curated into a big tub of random supplies, and i stop the fabric from fraying with a random match box. as for artistic stuff, you can easily make stencils from paper!!
trust me, if you've ever seen some really cool diy shit and wanna try it out, you 100% can! a lot of diy stuff can easily be sourced from around your house or from others around you with unwanted items.
im currently going around to friends of mine seeing if i can debone their jackets (steal the zippers) and then return said deboned jackets, if youre broke or just dont wanna spend $50 on a white t shirt with cursive on it then make that shit!! trust me you just gotta get creative with what you use. :)
update!!! belt bag has been finished :) ill post a picture if anyones interested but im super happy with it and ill test it out soon. currently painting a mini patch to stitch onto it for decoration!
i love the stereotype of punk just being purely scary and insane. like ya theres definitely some odd balls here (love u guys) (most of u) but im literally making myself a belt bag from an old pair of jeans!!!!! im over here doing arts and crafts for the sake of the environment.
fuck capitalism i wanna sew a bag. that i can attach to my belt. with loops. a belt bag. for my little things. fuck you!!!!! ill go listen to my political loud music too!!!!!!!
