Honestly WTF Creates a Thrifty DIY Embellished Denim Shirt

— August 3, 2012 — Art & Design
Revamp that forgotten top in the back of your closet with this DIY Embellished Denim Shirt tutorial by Honestly WTF. Bejewelled collars are all the rage this season, with everyone from high-fashion designers to low-end retailers joining in on the movement.

Inspired by western collar tips, the embellished look adds an eye-catching twist to ordinary dress shirts. Using an assortment of rhinestones and buttons, the tutorial shows how to create a high-end look for mere pennies.
