Yes, this IS designer!

You know how it is, the cliche saying in similar to the stature to "Pardon me do you have Grey Poupon" is "Who are you wearing" or "Is that designer" Well, the easiest way to achieve "designer" without spending a bundle is by YOU being the designer. So this quick easy project (under 30 minutes) will be just the thing to send the moneybags reeling!

Denim Studded Choker

Step 1

Take a large piece of denim and cut out an oval just slightly larger than the size of your head.

Step 2

take the middle shape out and use the extras (ditch oval keep the cut-out)

Step 3

Round the edges of the cut out and cut a fringe, keeping the end point the same all around the outer edge. Then split the back of it.

It should look something like this:

Step 4

take three studs with tails on either side like these:

Step 5

Insert one of the sharpened ends into the denim in the center or one of the sides like so:

(sorry for the blurryness my webcam doesn't shoot well in the dark, and up-close Thanks!)

Step 6

Insert other side by folding the sharp tab down (verticle) and *pushing a little extra fabric toward the already inserted tab creating a small pleat*

Step 7

Put in other studs!

Step 8

take the two ends in the back and tie them around your neck and it should look a lil something like this!

Voila!

So, darling, who are you wearing today? TODAY YOU'RE WEARING YOU!

Good Luck and Have fun my fellow DIY Designers!

Al Vedesain!
