5 minutes and a handful of pearls is all it took to transform this basic tank top.
You will need:
· A basic tank or t-shirt
You can either revitalise an old favourite, or buy a new one. I bought the featured tank for around £2 in H&M. Also this season’s nude pallet looks great with the pearl beads!
· A pack of beads (any will do – it doesn’t have to be pearls!)
You could also use beads from an old/broken necklace as they will work just as well.
· Needle and thread.
I used Gütermann thread in 121.
Step 1:
Lay you garment on a flat surface and decide approximately where you would like your beads to be placed. If it helps you could mark a boundary line on the garment using tailors chalk.
Step 2:
Cut a long strip of thread and tie the two ends together (the beads will be more secure when the thread has been doubled).
Step 3:
Start to sew the beads to the garment, sew as many as possible with each length of thread (there's no need to sew each bead individually!).
Step 4:
Step back and admire your handiwork!
