1. Bra into bralette
For this bra makeover you are going to glue a bra with lace trim onto a piece of lace. Apply fabric glue to the inside of the bottom bra band and attach it to the top edge of some lace.
Trim off the excess lace from the sides.
And you have a pretty camisole!
2. Plain to patterned bra
Pair a bold-colored bra with some coordinating scrap fabric.
Mark 1½ centimeters (0.59 inches) on the side panel of the bra, from the bra end.
Cut the side panels of your bra at those marks.
Trace the outline of the cut-off side panel onto the back of your fabric, adding a 1-inch seam allowance. Cut out the tracing.
With the right sides together, pin the bra side panel to the fabric and sew along the seam allowance line on three sides, leaving the shortest side open, making sure the bra is getting sewn onto the fabric.
Turn the side panels right side out and fold in the open edge so that the bra closure sticks out. Then sew that open edge closed, attaching it to the bra.
Attach the wider ends of the side panels to the sides of the bra and sew in place. And now your plain bra has been taken up a notch.
3. DIY bedazzled bra
Use a plain white underwire bra for this bra makeover. Apply fabric glue above the underwires.
Then attach beads or sparkles to the bra.
Continue gluing and adding beads until the whole bra cup is covered. And now you have a beautifully bedazzled bra to add to your collection of upstyled bras!
