The nailheads I ordered have finally arrived in the mail today. It was perfect as I was off today from work. Happy Veteran's Day! I've been so anxiously waiting as I had a few things in mind that I'd like to stylishly update. All for $4.98 (plus shipping of course), I updated three existing items in my closet with these iron-on studs from MJ Trim, my new DIY BFF. You get 50 per pack and it does come in four different colors (I believe, sorry for the short memory). The color I chose was antique gold. All was required to make it happen is an iron and an ironing board. My DIY rating = Easy.
I wish I would've taken a before picture, but here is a camel Ralph Lauren button down shirt that I've been wanting to embellish. Subtle nailheads were added to the shoulders, the tips of the collar, and the bottom corners of each front pocket.

It is definitely not easy as it looks because it is tricky to keep the nailhead straight and I was making sure that it was angled the right way. (Keep in mind, I knew ahead of time where I wanted to add the studs before starting this DIY project. Please be very careful to not burn yourself with the iron.)
[DIY Instructions]
(1) I placed each stud on the fabric and turned it upside down to iron the back side of the fabric. It is difficult to keep it straight so be patient. (2) Keep the iron on the back side for about one to two minutes. Each stud varies so if it sticks right away great, some may take longer than others. Repeat step one and two until finished. That's it! Below are two more existing items from my closet that I wanted to style up.

I quickly learned that the thinner the fabric, the harder it is to keep the stud from staying still. So please bare with my embellishments, as you can see from the picture, one or two are not angled the same way as others. But I'm still very happy with the results. I added four studs each on two of the opposite corners of the silk scarf. This is a fairly large scarf so I would normally fold it in half anyway.

My olive green Toms are looking fresh with the added studs. I wish I had more to go around but I actually used all 50 nailheads from the one pack. Do steps one and two, then repeat until finished. Voila! From envelope clutches to fedora hats and etc. there are so many great ways to add studs and even create your own personal touch.
Oh and by the way, I just recently added more vintage items to Ninna Lu Etsy. I finally had the time to list some more items.
Well I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and thank you so much for reading.
