I created this super simple DIY scarf, inspired by a scarf in Elsie's closet from a past season. This scarf is great for adding a pop of color to a neutral outfit. I think these would make great gifts for all my girlfriends. The best part is, this project only took about 30 minutes to make! 1. Supplies: 2 yards gauze fabric, lace trim, sewing pins, scissors, sewing machine. 2. Begin by cutting the fabric 3 x 1 ft. 3. Pin the lace trim to the edge of the fabric and top stitch it with the sewing machine. 4. Finish by adding more trim to throughout the scarf to give it a more layered, accessorized look!
Have a great week! Kinsey

Not too difficult at all! I could totally do this, even without my sewing machine!
Ou, I love the lace trim! You could buy any fabric at the store and just add a trim and it would look fabulous π I should have thought of that! I love when you feature Kinsey on the blog!
This is so pretty! Already got all my girlfriends sorted for this Christmas, but this is great to keep in mind for birthdays that creep up on you! Love how bright this is x x
Gorgeous! I love it! I don’t know for sure yet, but I think my grandmother may be giving me her sewing machine for Christmas… if so, I may give this a try!
Scarves are my drugs. I usually don’t wear much jewelry and I definitely prefer a nice scarf to a necklace.
With this idea you combined my love for scarves with my latest obsession with lace π
I am going to try this as a simple sewing machine project. I’m trying to teach myself how to sew, and really simple little projects like this are few and far between. Thanks!
I love how easy it is and so, so pretty…I don’t know that I would have put them together myself, but color and lace work perfectly together. Thanks, Kinsey!
I just wanted to let you know that I loved this post so much that I decided to feature it on my blog! Iβm typing up the post right now! Thanks for such great inspirations!!!
You read my mind!
I found a scrap of soft brown polka dot fabric that will make a pretty scarf, but it will only be about six inches wide when I make it long enough. Then I sorted through a stash of lace and found some wonderful vintage pieces and realized how beautiful they’ll look stitched the length of the brown polka dots.
Can’t wait to sit down to stitch it up.
