Customised Denim Shorts
The classic festi staple is a pair of denim shorts. Actually, not just for festivals, they are a great all rounder for anyone’s wardrobe. To make them that little bit more exiting you can customise them by adding detailing like these. Straight forward to do on the sewing machine or even by hand if you don’t have one. All you need is some small fabric scraps, needle and thread. Stick the kettle on and get involved!
Customised T-shirt Dresses
Did I mention the things you can make from old t-shirts are endless! There are whole books and websites dedicated to the topic.
I wanted to create some dresses that were stylish, comfortable and easy to make.
The “skirt” part I cut from slightly thicker jersey that I had. On some of the t-shirt dresses I adjusted the sleeve hole a little to make it less gapy by putting in darts.( I kind of like the slouchy armholes though.) Wear it with a contrasting sports bra. Plus in the summer its nice and airy.
Story Book Collage
I loved the illustrations in this vintage story book. So I wanted to used them for a simple collage. Found some perfect size wooden frames too.
Customised & Dyed Denim
Stitched and Repaired.
I had these Levi’s denim jackets kicking about that needed a second life.
I put them in the washing machine with a sachet of brown Dylon. The outcome was a somehow a rusty colour with navy highlights. I like it.
I then patched up all the ripped bit and added some detailing.
A shade of denim not normally found in Levi’s stores.
