Walk in the Woods


So recently, since the random snow day I have decided to become alot craftier on these past few weeks I've had my craft ONNN!
I crocheted myself some bear/monkey like earwarmers, which are sooo cosy ;).
Then my best friend, Lizzie Acorn, requested some 'but pointy' so from that I made her some cat/fox earwarmers.
 I have also made a white cotton, peter pan collar -which I forgot to take a picture of, oops :L- which is detachable and means I can wear with various outfits :D. Me and my friend Lizzie Acorn had been planning for a while to model my creations and outfits we liked, we didn't go until today, and I really enjoyed myself.






















































Walk in the Woods
 As you can see Lizzie's outfits are pretty much matched, while mine are just awkward. My skirt actually has little cars and jukeboxes and is by a brand called influence. My cardigan is a charity shop find that my Nana bought me. My stripey top is just a skinny tee from Primark. I bought the jeans and blouse from a T.U sale. :L So yeah I'm really awkward :D
The similar skirt is from River Island.
The nearest blouse I can find.
The floral jeans.
Checked shirt,dungarees, t-shirt and skirt are all from Newlook.
Denim shirt from internacionale.
Sunny G's- sold out x'c.
Squirrel Bag from ebay.co.uk.
My friend Lizzie Acorn might be getting a blog soon :) YAY!
Ciao,Rani Apple x

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

Before 








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.
