DIY/ Safety Pins collar

I can't wait for my hair to grow so I could do a proper bun. I tried to do 2 buns hair style yesterday but they look a bit pathetic don't they?  
I painted this T-shirt a few months ago with fabric paint. Remember? You can see the post here! and I recently added safety pins to the collar of this blouse and I'm happy with the result. I like easy DIY's I'm not the most patient with sewing machines. I really admire when people make clothes from scratch. I just like adding, painting and cutting all kinder garden stuff! I just had breakfast and now I'm going for a coffee in town. Happy sunday!

  3. I am growing my hair to do a bun too but I am such impatient...
    I love your DIY projects, they are so feasible and encouraging. I love to look/watch nice and complicated projects but I never really get anything done from them:)))
    Have a happy Sunday too!
    It's already night time here and I am going to bed ^_^

  12. victoria, great styling! from a distance it looks one way, then up close it's a surprise plethora of safety pins. :) i also like how the shapes in your hand painted shirt mimic the safety pin shapes, resembling a rib cage, & spinal cord. it's all about positive & negative spacing with the white & black.

  21. This is incredible! I have absolutely no creativity when it comes to DIY-ing clothes so I'm endlessly jealous of those who do. This outfit is fantastic, and you look gorgeous!

    By the way, thank you so much for following my blog! I know this sounds really cheesy, but I'm a motherforgettin' huge fan of yours so it really does mean an awful lot.
