I hope you had a stress-free weekend
my dear friends!
Do you get mailers & catalogs in
your mailbox? Here in the U.S.,
we receive quite a few peddling
anything from clothes, shoes,
accessories, toys & furniture.
I like to leaf through them
because many of them are very
well produced...you know what I
mean -- there's a concept, styling
and a story unfolding as you flip
each page.
The J. Crew catalog is one of those
ones I look forward to.
The pages are filled with ideas
on how to put clothes together
in a unique way.
It's also a good source
of blah to TADA! inspiration.
Take a look at these bangles
by Lulu Frost for J.Crew.
Won't they be the perfect
finishing touch to a cute outfit?
Well, let's try making something similar.
blah: plain plastic bangles
Add a few embellishments by attaching
with hot glue. TADA!
Certainly not as luxe as Lulu Frost's...
...but a cheap & cheerful transformation
nonetheless!
Oh, I'm crazy for catalogs. I always find inspiration in them, even if the inspiration I get is not what they're for...
ReplyDeleteFor example, I'm reading a clothes catalog and all of the sudden I take inspirations for a picnic with the setting they prepared.
Or I see something that would be a TADA makeover of something.
Wishing you a happy weeke,
Teresa
I totally agree Teresa! Thanks for coming over and have a wonderful week! :)
