How to Decorate a Thrifted Jacket with Upcycled Embellishments

Wearable Art! This is a diy/tutorial on how to upcycle a thrifted blazer. Mine is pink tweed, but yours can be anything you want. We will create a beautiful and romantic collage using flower applique, bird applique from a pillow cover, vintage lace, ribbon detail and vintage mother of pearl buttons. We will also be adding a layered ruffle and fringe to the sleeves and bottom. Create a one of a kind piece to wear or sell (like I did for many many years). I try my best to give detailed, understandable instructions, this is more like a class.
