I think details and accessories are usually the best part of an outfit, they can kick out any dreariness!. As a huge fan of Iris Apfel and her famous quote 'more is more, less is a bore', I'm enjoying some massive accessories. I'm still not that fabulous, but, ladies, I'm trying it!
My crochet headpiece was really easy to do. I used some spare starfishes from another project (my revamped beach bag). I put them into a starch bathing, using the product undiluted, and let them dry over an upside-down bowl to obtain a curved shape. Then I glued them on a simple hairpin. Voilá.

Los accesorios y detalles suelen ser la parte que más me gusta a la hora de vestir, son lo que puede salvarte del aburrimiento más mortal!. Como entusiasta admiradora de Iris Apfel, me encanta su frase 'más es más, menos es un rollo', estoy disfrutando de unos accesorios bien grandes. Puede que aún me falte mucho para alcanzar tanta fabulosidad, pero está claro que lo intento!
Este adorno en ganchillo que llevo en el pelo fue muy fácil de hacer. Utilicé unas estrellas de mar que me sobraron de otro proyecto (una bolsa para playa que fue transformada). Puse las piezas de ganchillo en almidón, usando el producto sin diluir, y las dejé secar sobre un bol dado la vuelta, para que quedasen con esa curvatura. Luego las pegué sobre una horquilla, y Fin!

I love that headpiece - what a great idea! You are so right, it is the accessories that can make or break an outfit. Teal and purple play so well togther - you are a star when it comes to mixing colours.
ResponderEliminarI love these colours, and your starfish headpiece! Wouldn't life be dull if everyone wore pared-down, minimalist outfits? That's not for me, thank goodness! xxx
ResponderEliminarAwesome DIY! I have never learned to crochet. I can even wreck the simplest knitting. So I depend on people like you to show me beauty in that department. The teal and purple are perfect.
