MADE RHINESTONE 2.0

If you are anything like me you most likely already own a pleather jacket. 

Super inexpensive and so tempting to buy... I've been hanging on to this one from Forever 21 for a few years now, and by Forever 21 I mean Heritage 1981, so yea its old.

While I appreciate this work horse of a garment, It was in need of an update.... 
The Versace Fall 2013 Menwear show last week really drove this home. 
Major lust over all the bedazzled moto jackets in that collection. 

MAKE:

The Rhinestones are from Joann Fabrics. I used about two bags of the jumbo size.

I didn't want any of the pinks or purples on my jacket, thats why I needed two bags. 

Learn from my mistakes. Be careful on the glue you use. If its too strong it can eat through the foiled back of the rhinestone and make a crackle effect.

I ended up just using Krazy Glue

Make sure that you test whatever glue you use on the pleather. 

I swear by this Craft Goop, but for whatever reason it wouldn't stick to the pleather.

Demonstrating some arm mobility here... it is possible in the jacket, just not super easy.
