29th MayThis Spring designer’s collections were booming with blooms of colorfully layered prints, and none of them wowed us more than Prabal Gurung …the king of injecting a dose of tech-style in his textiles. To get in touch with our own flower power, we teamed up with our friends at Who What Wear to create an accessory that pays homage with decoupage…and brings together a few of a style savvy girl’s favorite things - DIY, fashion, technology, and flowers!To create, you will need wooden or plastic bangles, as your blank canvas. Gather real or faux flowers in a color scheme of your choice. Group and arrange the flowers in a pattern and snap a picture with your phone or camera. Send to print, as is, or upload to photoshop and duplicate to create a repeat pattern. Once printed, cut out strips or small pieces which you will use to cover the inside and outside of your bangle. Using Mod Podge, cover the inside of the bangle by “painting” the back of the paper and securing to the wood or plastic. Continue all the way around, wrapping the edges of the cut outs, to cover the edge of the bangle. Continue on the outside and then add a final layer of Mod Podge once the bangle is completely covered in the flower print.Click here to check out the step by step video with Hillary & Katherine of Who What Wear!

26th MayDIY Melted Perler Bead Jewelry. As I’ve posted before, Perler Beads are wonderful for children of an appropriate age because they are big enough for them to thread shoelaces through to make jewelry (one of my favorite small gifts is a tackle box with Perler Beads, shoelaces and the child’s name written with puffy paint on top). 6000 Perler Beads from Amazon (with pegboards) is about $9 here (NO AFFILIATE LINKS). Tutorial from Craft and Creativity here.

27th AprilIt’s wine o’clock (somewhere) — which means it’s time to share a wine-related repurposing find.
Today: Bottle pieces made into jewelry.
(Pictured: Champagne bottle bracelets and Belvedere Vodka bottle bracelets from Bottlehood on Etsy, whose adult beverage bottles-turned-into-drinking-glasses we’ve featured previously here. Thanks to Susan C. for the jewelry tip!)
For earlier posts in Unconsumption’s wine o’clock series, check out the archive here.
I want one of these.
