Plus DIY Weekend - The Bina

I love Pinterest. I could spend hours of my day scanning through the colourful snapshots of vintage wedding dresses, lazy girl exercises and terrible Nutella recipes. One of my favourite categories, though, is the DIY and crafts. Mostly it's just spray-painted, lace modge-podged mason jars, but every once in a while you get a really good one, and it screams "DO ME YO-YO MASTER!" and so you do it. Hard.

This Bina thing tutorial was one of those pins. Created by Bina Brianca, this is literally a rectangular piece of fabric that can be fashioned into a million different accessories/tops.

At $42.50, it's actually a completely affordable and worth-it purchase, but it only comes in one size. We could probably all fit into this super-stretchy piece of fabric, but we want it to look light, flowy and effortless like blondie here, not like sausages stuffed in jersey-knit casing. (Which isn't always a bad thing, but its just not the look I am hoping for here.)


If you are feeling into the one-size-fits-all deal, you just want it for the incredible array of accessories or want to buy one as a gift, you can buy the Bina here.

If you're stubborn and insolent like me and refuse to buy something you feel you can make, check back for the DIY tutorial with ~pictures~ this weekend. (Ooh la-la.)
