The Cupcakes and Cashmere DIY Embellished Sunglasses post introduces a way to update standard sunglasses from home. Schuman begins the entry by delving into her own obsession with the vibrant style, one that she has distinguished here as being far too expensive for her own budget.
This step by step guide delivers the same look at a fraction of the price. Schuman began the project with shades taken from the stores of Forever21 and Urban Outfitters. She then topped these pieces with a range of decorative items, seen here in fabric-based flowers, faux pearls and small rhinestones. All that was needed to apply these materials was a hot glue gun, making these Embellished Sunglasses easy to produce at home.
