DIY till we die: studded denim

DIY via Miss at La Playa

No we are not talking about “bedazzling” your jeans. I am talking about adding a bit of embellishments on your plain denim. If you want to add a bit of “rock and roll” to your vintage duds, check out this DIY from Miss at La Playa, one of our fave bloggers and long time Dujour fan, on how to tastefully make your own studded denims.

Materials:
- Medium 3/8″ Pyramid Studs like these
- Jeans
- A glass (optional)

Instructions:
1. Cut the left side of the pocket, leaving the seam intact.
2. Place the glass under the denim, to tighten the fabric, it will be easier to add the studs.

3. Hold the fabric while you insert the studs.

4. Seal every new stud you add. I suggest you used the same hole for the next stud so they won’t fall apart.

5. Continue adding the studs until the pocket is fully covered.
