DIY : Studded Tshirt

Here's a great DIY project that is simple enough for even me!
All you need is a blank tshirt and a pile of stud rivets!
My recommendation would be to go two sizes up as this look is better as a relaxed, oversized look (versus being too fitted.)
Now all you need to decide is where you want to put the studs...maybe just the collar and sleeves? all over (like below)? or maybe create the letter X? So many DIY options!!!

Baby Shower DIY Gift Ideas!

Here are a few ideas for baby shower onesie/clothing decorations or as a gift for the expecting mother.

1. Numbered Baby Clothing
The baby can have their picture take every month. At the end of the year, the parents can see the growth of their child. All you need for this DIY : transfer paper/iron-on paper/fabric paint and baby clothing - tshirt, onesie, romper, etc.

2. Baby Clothes Bouquet
Give the beautiful gift of “flowers” that are made of different pieces of baby clothes. Simply roll up onesies, socks, bibs etc, into rose shapes. Secure rolls with rubber bands. Insert sticks in bottoms of roses and bunch roses together. Wrap it and your done! Details how to create these found here.
3. Breastfeeding Infinity Scarf
This is such a great idea! Hello fashionable and practical versatility! Oh and it's super simple to make. Just get a huge of jersey fabric (150 x 80cm as a rough guide), fold in half, sew it together, trim hem for neatness/smoothness. Done! Tutorial found here.
