You Will Need (6 things)

  • Black Blazer (thrift find!)
  • Jumbo Studs
  • Iron
  • Scissors
  • Printer Paper
  • Ruler

Steps (10 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut strips of jumbo studded iron-on trim to the length of your blazer lapel.

  2. 2

    The first row should be a single row strip, created by cutting apart the trim length. Place remaining strips along lapel as shown. Our longest piece was 14".

  3. 3

    Tip: Vary lengths of strips, but be sure to measure them so you know what to cut for the opposite side.

  4. 4

    Place printer paper over the studs and iron them down one strip at a time, 25-30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Repeat front and back with paper inside the lapel to prevent glue from leaking through thinner fabrics.

  6. 6

    Smaller stud trim pieces can be used as part of the motif - save them as you work for this or future projects!

  7. 7

    Here's our motif - you can add more or less depending on your preference and lapel size.

  8. 8

    Let your studs cool and repeat iron-on process to ensure hold (especially with fabrics that don't take well to adhesive).

  9. 9

    Let cool completely and try it on!
