Hey fashion babes!
This is the first post in a new series on this site called “DIY-or-Bust” where I take inspiration from Pinterest and from over-priced things I find in stores and re-create it for $20 or less.
That’s right the limit is $20.00 (plus tax).
The first item I’m gonna task myself with is a diy ma
keup pouch. I always see a bunch on cute ones in store that are also so pricy. And I mean they’re cute…but $35+ for an empty pouch? No thanks.
WHAT YOU NEED:
- Blank canvas pouch ($3.59)
- Fabric paint ($1.37)
- Assorted paint Brushes ($2.00)
- Letter Stencils ($5.99)
This is a super simple DIY.
The first thing you need to do is decide what you want your makeup bag to say. I chose “Bag of tricks”, but the options are endless. For each letter I taped down the stencil (or you could just hold it) and then with a sponge brush I dabbed the paint on. Of course when you use stencils some letters are going to come out better than others, but it all kinda gives that ‘shabby-chic’ vibe to it.
After you finish spelling out your desired phase just let it dry and then voila you have a super cute makeup bag that only set you back (drum roll please)
$12.95!!
Not only is that cheaper than a lot of similar ones you see in stores- its one of a kind
This was definitely a fun DIY that I would recommend!
Have fun crafting DIY babes!
‘Till next time
