I love the shacket look and wanted something unique. I have so many jean jackets so I got a pink denim material shacket instead. I also love turquoise!

It was cute but needed a little bedazzling!

I played around with the placement but decided on an asymmetrical look.

I also got this fabric glue which is supposed to be the real deal and turquoise beads off Amazon.

The glue actually came with the tweezers too!

After laying out all the beads where I wanted them to go, I lifted one at a time and added a drip of glue, then placed the bead back on.


I ended up doing the pocket on one side and the top seam on the other.

Then I let it dry over night.

Full disclosure, even though this glue said it was the best and had really great reviews, I did find some of the beads coming loose. I had to glue some back on. I don't know if it was because of the denim fabric but just something to keep in mind and maybe have a few extra beads!

I love the look!
