Fashion is all over us and we can't bear to wear just the same clothing and accessories just like fifty other people or so on the same street. It's all about creating fashion and being unique in what you wear. One of a kind. I'm 100% sure that you will love this because I have done it and gained quite a lot of appreciation. It's fun to engage in the activity and you'll enjoy wearing them too. So here we go.
Sunglasses
Create your own designer frames by embellishing inexpensive sunglasses. Sunglasses can become a fun, flashy accessory or a finishing touch for a special ensemble. Use items such as buttons, beads, rhinestones, decorative threads and strips of leather. A few items are usually all that is necessary.
When applying embellishments with glue, make sure the base of the item rests flat on the surface of the frame, to ensure good adhesion. Use a jewelry glue intended for plastics and metals working carefully to avoid excess glue on the frames. You may want to work with a tweezers and apply the glue using a toothpick.
Buttons add a simple embellishment to sunglasses. You can also use beads, gems or even paint for designs. for buttons, remove the shanks from the buttons, using a wire cutter and apply the buttons with glue.

Wire Mesh Earrings
Create contemporary style earrings from a wire mesh called "hardware cloth" available from hardware stores, and strips of fabric or leather. These earrings are simple and inexpensive and can be made match or coordinate with a favourite outfit.
Hardware cloth is available only in silver but may be painted gold. It provides a base for weaving or wrapping narrow strips of lightweight fabric or leather. Decorative threads, wrapped over the fabric or leather provide additional interest and beads can be used as accents.
