fluorescent fringe – the diy fringed sweatshirt

I paired the last remaining bits from my boho boots & boot top bag with an 80’s comeback to create a fabulous fluorescently fringe-y cowgirl-chic sweatshirt:

Here’s how-to make your own in minutes – fluorescent fringe – the diy fringed sweatshirt:

Grab an over-sized neon sweatshirt & some funktatsic fringe

turn it inside out & chop out the sleeve seam from above the cuff to just below the underarm

cut the fringe to size (if necessary) & pop it into the sliced sleeve fringe-facing-in & raw edges lined up

stitch together & repeat with the other sleeve

pop it on with some comfy leggings & a pair o’ rockin’ cowboy boots & go show off your fringetastically retro new sweatshirt!

Let’s review:

    1. Thank you for the fabulous compliments!

      *believe it or not my photographer is actually a sad old tripod with taped legs combined with the timer on my camera! 😉

  2. I love your complete inability to do normal everyday poses on this blog. LOVE it.
