DIY collars // UPCYCLING

Upcyclede skjortekraver

Jeg har for nyligt ryddet op i mit skab, hvor disse to skjorter nåede det evil limit - de skulle ud af vagten. Da jeg så skulle pakke dem ned senere, slog det mig at de havde potentiale for et nyt liv i min garderobe. 

Nu er kinakraver noget man ser alle steder på fine tunikaer i butikkerne, og hvorfor så ikke forvandle kedelige storekraver til kinakraver. Nu havde skjorterne lagt og samlet støv længe, så upcycling var deres sidste chance. 

Denne form for DIY er faktisk super hurtig og let, sammenlignet med andre slags DIY!

HOW TO: 
Den knækkedehvide skjorte med blonder er meget tynd og fin i tekstilen, og kraven kunne derfor let klippes af med en god stofsaks. 

Den anden skjorte har en noget tykkere krave, og den fik derfor et stykke klippet af, og syet som opslag på indersiden. 

Resultaterne blev super fine, synes jeg, og de har helt klart fået et helt nyt look!

Upcycled shirt collars 

I recently cleaned up my closet, where these two shirts reached the evil limit - they were had finished their mission. When I had to pack them later, it struck me that they had the potential for a new life in my wardrobe. 

Now china collars are something you see everywhere on fine tunics in stores and why not transform boring big collars into china collars. Now, put the shirts collecting dust long as upcycling was their last chance. 

This kind of DIY is actually super fast and easy, as compared with other kinds of DIY! 

HOW TO: 

The first white shirt with lace is very thin and fine in the textile and the collar could therefore easily be cut with a good fabric scissors. 

The second shirt has a thicker collar, and therefore got a piece cut off and sewn on the inside. 

The results were super nice, I think, and they've definitely got a whole new look!
