The Perfect x Imperfection

by Kiyoko Yasuda



This is a simple DIY post about how to make your own buttons!!
If you're in Singapore, you can find this 'covered buttons' item in the crafts section @ DAISO!
They have all types of sizes and they sell a packet with just the buttons so you can make more!
This packet is the starter kit!!
PLEASE NOTE! The starter kit and the extension packet look EXACTLY ALIKE
It's just that the things they have are different. 
Make sure you look at the package carefully before buying it!! 

Oh and because it's from DAISO...
IT'S $2!!!!!


WHAT YOU NEED
included in the package:
1x green cap
1x top of the button
1x bottom of the button
1x clear cap
what you need to prepare:
1x scissors
small piece of cloth (for the button)


Oh also!!
I'll be making a 27mm button!
It's the biggest size they have if I'm correct.


INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the piece of cloth on top of the clear cap
(the bottom of the cap being downwards...
aka the cap is upside down)



2. Place the top of the button on top of the cloth



3. PUSH DOWN THE BUTTON!
*push push push*

This is a super late post but remember when I cosplayed a month ago?
Here's the link if you haven't seen it!


So anyways, for the cosplay I had to make my own collar...
The attachable collar is becoming a popular fashion statement these days.
BUT!!!
Did you know that they're actually really easy to make?!!??!

Lemme show you!!

I found this SUPER awesome link that shows you how to make your own collar!!
http://www.ecouterre.com/make-a-detachable-collar-for-popping-over-your-sweater-diy-tutorial/

When you master this..
you can make customize the collar to a different shape or size too!

Here's my process of making the collar...
I didn't take each step down on photo but you can kind of see the progression with these pics!!!

ENJOY!!!


First got my cloth!

Like the instructions said, I traced a collar of the shirt to get this draft!
Then I pinned it to the cloth and it's time to snip snip snip!!!
Just a short blogpost!!!!


So what did I do during my weekend?
