You can alternatively read that title as "Things I'm going to make because I don't have the money to buy them." All I can think about lately is making things, mostly necklaces and headpieces and giant weirdo scarf things to wrap around me when the wind is blowing.
DIY to buy list:
Curtain tassels
Upholstery trim
Big gold studs
BIG GOLD LOOPS
Various assorted chains
Rope, rope, rope
Small silver studs x 10000
Jersey - grey & black & purple & green, yeahhh
Those spring things that go down stairs
DIY Inspiration:
(Although, how many sets of bunny ears does one girl need? I do already have two...)
Leather Louis Vuitton paper chain necklace that costs about a gazillion pounds. But I have leather and superglue at home... Inspired by a great DIY over at Style Hurricane.
Garbage Dress Zana's leather and spike headband (although, to be honest, I love everything she makes and does and wears, etc)
EDIT: I forgot this!
$47 (on sale) here from Shop Ban.do. I do love the stuff the girls at Ban.do make, but I am poor and so I'm going to be inspired by some of their ideas and get making my very own, including some huge and ridiculous tulle concoctions for me and something similar to the one below for Sarah!
Also inspired by my new friend Luke's amazing handmade spring necklace! I will edit this with a picture later, innit. I need to get making!
you can NEVER have too many bunny ears! you actually look cuter than my imaginary girlfriend lily allen does in them. and that's saying something. ;) xx

I definitely think those bunny ears should be on the list! They're fantastic.
