If you see a vintage sweater with appliqué decor, sometimes you'll notice that it's a bit high in price. If you're like me and can't really be bothered with spending too much on sweaters and cardigans with adorable designs, fret not my retro gal pal, you can create your own! The teal blue cardigan is Roxy by way of Buffalo Exchange and it was under $12 bucks. The flamingo patch was $2.69 with free shipping!
All you need is an iron and an iron on patch from Ebay. Check out this list of iron on appliqués.
Borrowed my beloved's nerd glasses, they're fun but I don't know if I have the guts to wear them out.
I feel like Poindexter!
Have at it! It's fun and it takes about 5 minutes to do. If you revamp a cardigan of your own, send me a photo, I'd love to see it. :)
