DIY’s are always great fun, but simple DIY’s are the best for me. It’s instant satisfaction! Especially when it’s something you can wear every day, which is why I decided to embellish these three scarf’s, which are exactly the same to show you how easy and simple it is to create something Fabulous!! Enjoy

Great ideas! I’ve been wanting to do a pom-pom trim on one of my scarves for ages; you may have just inspired me to get going on that project 🙂
Good luck i’m sure it will look great!
Where did you get the original scarf???
The Scarf is from H&M
those are some really great ideas, im totally gonna go to HM, grab that scarf and do one of the 3 ideas!
These are gorgeous! I think the embellishments go perfectly with the black dots on this blush colored scarf. Thanks for the tip on where the scarf fame from!
Hi Terriaw the scarf if from H&M, good luck with your DIY

I love the pom pom scarf. I would love to do black pom poms on gray for a stronger contrast. These are all wonderful ideas!

I was just thinking recently about how I could extend the life of my daughter’s pants by adding some kind of trim to the bottom of them. These pictures gave me great ideas!
Good luck Dina
When me daughter was younger (now 17), I used to use all kinds of trim to add length to her pants. We got so many compliments. I also added fabric sometimes. Pretty little prints or funky colors. You can also add a touch to the pockets or even the belt loops. Good luck with your project!
*my, not me Argh! Why do I only notice a typo after I hit Post!?
LOVE all of these! I really love the scarf you started with, did you make them? What kind of fabric is that?
Hi Taylor, no i purchased the scarf from H&M and added the embellishments with M&J Trim.
OK, I know I live in the backwoods, but who are H&M and M&J??????? Joyce G Carney, Michigan (Upper Peninsula – 2 hrs. N of Green Bay, Wisconsin
Great idea for scarves. I love to make and sell them. I put some coins on my hats.

Thank you! Blerona
I am going to make a scarf from some velvet and once saw how to use stamps to iron a design on the velvet but cannot remember the details on how to do this.
Cute ideas! I have only discovered the wonderful world of fashion scarves this fall and winter. These simple ideas will help to spice some of my cheaper ones up!
I’m sorry but I don’t understand your direction. Glue in 3 spots, where and why. I just need more clarity or examples of what ur describing I am hands on need diagrams. Love the scarf however! Thank u.
