DIY - STUDDED COLLAR



Collar - £3.84 / Studs - £2.89

A couple of weeks ago i got the DIY bug and wanted to have a go at studding something after seeing studs everywhere! Studded clothing has been doing the rounds for a while and is getting more popular week by week with lots of high street and online stores getting in on the trend. The only thing is, studded items can be quite pricey. I like to live on a budget and so when something is achievable by a simple DIY sesh I'm all over it. I picked up a detachable collar (the seller i bought from has a wide variety or designs/colours to pick from) and studs from good old trusty eBay and set to work. I probably spent about 10 mins in total making the studded collar so it was no time at all and even i was impressed with just how quickly it was to do! I've well and truly got the stud bug and now want to stick studs on everything i own, I'm even thinking of adding a few to my denim shirt and faux leather jacket!

Come back tomorrow to see the finished collar on my Fridays Face!

Are you a fan of the stud trend or are you bored of seeing studs everywhere?

  1. I've always wanted to try it but I'm too afraid I'll muck up and ruin something.
