A DIY Halter Top Using Scarves

Give me a couple of scarves, and I can think of numerous ways to DIY them into a wearable work of art. Here is a flowy and very wearable summer halter top with the use of three 20” x 20” scarves. It’s an extremely easy DIY if you are looking for a unique summer top. I found my three scarves below in the H&M clearance/sale aisle. They were $5 a piece with an additional 30% off on each. Score!

Instructions

  1. Small 110132 2f2015 07 27 161152 diy%2bscarf%2bhalter%2btop%2b4

    What you will need: 3 identical scavres, realeather craft lace, thread, needle (or use a sewing machine)

  2. Small 110132 2f2015 07 27 161309 diy%2bscarf%2bhalter%2btop%2b6

    The DIY process is very simple. Take two of the scarves and form the front of the top as seen below. The scarves will be stitched together in the mid-front, forming a really pretty and flowy flap in the front of the halter.

    Taking my string of Realeather lace, I cut two strings into my desired length and pinned them to the front points in order to form my halter’s straps. Then I took the other end of the two straps and pinned them to the third scarf, which will be the back of my halter top

    A sewing machine comes in handy when sewing the straps onto the scarves, but they can easily be sewn by hand as well. Sew the straps on, stitch the mid-front and the sides to form the top.
