Embellished Sunglasses-DIY

Embellished Sunglasses
Let's make some pretty sunglasses, whoooooop!

You will need:

- A handful of pretties :) (diamante, beads, pearls- preferably flat back but I just used normal)
-UHU or some super glue
-Patience
-Sunglasses
-*Optional* Tweezers

Before you start plan out where you are going to put everything, probably symmetrical but the choice is yours.
Carefully squeeze out a small amount of glue where you are putting you first embellishment. If your embellishments are small and fiddly maybe you should use tweezers to pick up and place them.

To make these sunglasses I suggest buying some cheap sunglasses mainly just in case they get ruined also why buy some super expensive when you are going to change them x
Maybe get them from somewhere like a goodwill/charity shop or thrift store. :) Mine were £1.99.

Look how jazzed up they are :D

It's not like there's no filter on the before of anything, pffft... no :D. But adding pearls has slightly altered the shape of the frame to more of a cat eyes pair but that's good :P

The glasses in the collage are from boohoo.com, topshop and ASOS, for more information check out my polyvore , in case you don't want to give this a go :c. If you do want to give this a go and don't mind please e-mail your finished pair, I'd love to see.
