I love being creative time to time. And i feel very good when this creativity can be useful and inspire others. ‘Cause It really annoys me when people blindly follow the imposed mass fashion taste. Who doesn’t spend time on selecting beautiful fabrics and patterns while choosing clothes. And the most of time people just do not have enough good offer to perform their best choice. That’s why being able to make your own design is a great additional way to represent your beautiful and unique taste.
The question is what to use to start. Some learn knitting(personally not addicted), others learn tailoring, and i suggest you here one of the easiest and beautiful way of clothing decoration – lacy ribbons, laces, beads, brooches and other staff that you can easily find in your home or any specialized store)))
Here is my work, i was really happy to get lots of positive comments when i tried to dress it out the first time a couple days ago.
next you can see how laces can give finished and ELEGANT look to any dress/ abaya / sheilah/ sleeves/ and even home-dresses
HOW TO…
the next big handmade lacy flower can be used for a huge flower clip that is used under sheilahs(Gulf/khaleeji look). But you will have to make 2 same size parts of the lacy flower and than attach to them a hairclip itself. Sew it to the parts or put it on any strong (for textile) glue:
And more fun for you and your family))also this nice emirati group on facebook
All praise is due to Allah, and Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon His Final Messenger,his pure family, his noble Companions, and all those who follow them with righteousness until the Day of Judgment.
Some lace can be pretty. Too much and it starts to look like underwear.
