DIY Swimsuit Coverups

This Glitter 'N Glue Tutorial Gets Any Girl Beach Ready

— July 24, 2012 — Art & Design
Learn how to make a sophisticated swimsuit cover up in this Glitter 'N Glue tutorial. Created by self-proclaimed do-it-yourself debutante from Texas Kristen Turner, this tutorial featured on Turner's fashion DIY blog Glitter 'N Glue was inspired by the blogger's upcoming Hawaii vacation. In desperate need of a transitional wardrobe piece that would take Turner from the beach to the hotel, or perhaps a beachfront restaurant, she decided to craft her own inexpensive beachwear.

After following a few simple steps, any beach babe will be ready to appear both presentable and chic without breaking the bank account. Not to mention, the nearly backless creation will help to show off the bronze glow of recently sun-soaked skin. The possibilities of this Glitter 'N Glue tutorial are endless if a fabulous fashionista decides to use an array of colored fabrics.
