Roll Back to the ’80s With a Pair of DIY Sequin Skates

If you haven’t heard, ’80s fashion is *SO* in. While there are definitely some trends that should stay in that decade, I’m all in for other looks like graphic sweatshirts and holographic apparel. When I brainstormed what I should do for this shoot, I looked up ’80s fashion and saw this awesome roller skating photo, and it was like a light when on! I wanted - no, I needed to DIY roller skates.

Decorating your roller skates with sequin polka dots is really simple. Depending on how many dots you do, you can definitely finish this DIY in a couple of hours or less. All you need then are knee socks, and boom - you’re a roller girl!

Materials and Tools:
  • roller skates
  • sequin ribbon, 4 yards of each color
  • hot glue gun
  • scissors










Unlace skates. Glue sequins on roller skates in a circle.













That’s it!
Life’s too short to not roller skate.

I'm eager to include more as more enterprises with my little person anticipate. Furthermore, obviously, Coco, who admires her enormous sibling inside and out, expected to get in on the amusing to . . .  YOU'LL NEED:  iron-on patches (here are some of my favorite places to shop for patches): For The Love Of Patch : Wes Anderson pat...
