Using fabric to create jewelry and decorate your home is a budget-friendly way to update your wardrobe and your décor.Whether you're a seasoned do-it-yourselfer, or just starting to dabble in homemade crafts, here are some simple and elegant projects you can do with fabric to create unique, beautiful pieces.Fabric EarringsThe Spruce says fabric jewelry popularity is on the rise; but why spend a small fortune on it if you can make it yourself? These simple, pretty fabric bead earrings are easy to make, and complement any outfit. Simply cut, sew or hem silk ribbons or silk scarves into the desired shape, and add the earring hardware. You can even glue fabric over beads or light wood dowels to create a light, shaped earring.Fabric Ball NecklaceTo create a trendy fabric ball necklace, you'll need fabric (like our silk ribbons or silk scarves), scissors, wire, a needle, and thread. Cut the fabric into strips, and then fold it into a ball shape. Wrap a length of wire around the fabric ball, and tuck in the pointy edges-repeat this until you have about ten small fabric balls. Next, using the embroidery thread, stitch the balls together to the desired length. Attach ribbons to the ends, and you've made an absolutely unique fabric necklace!Wall Art To use fabric to decorate your home, Apartment Therapy says to simply affix a wooden rod and a bit of wire to a sheath of fabric, like our silk scarves. You can create a tapestry-like wall covering with any pattern or type of fabric that you like, with a needle and thread, or a glue gun, and a simple wooden dowel.You can also pick up a canvas at your local home goods store, and wrap the fabric around the canvas. You'll have a professional looking piece of art, at a fraction of the price! Table Décor If you're uninspired by the table cloth selections in your home, or simply want to shake things up for an upcoming gathering, toss a silk scarf onto your table, and use it as a runner. If you love the look, you can even sew the edges into a point, and attach a silk ribbon tassel to the ends.In order to do this, you would have to remove the hardware but that's a simple fix.For more fabric design inspiration and plenty of products, visit Class Act Designs website or call us today 888-799-0311 to discuss our products and learn more!
