DIY holiday sweater with shoulder sequins

* A sweater
* 2 Beaded or Sequin trim appliques – there are tons of fun styles here {I picked mine up at Bargain Yardage when I bought my DIY tablecloth materials}
* Needle/Thread/Scissors – or really, if you disguise them well, safety pins will do the trick

steps

* Decide where you want your appliques and pin them in place

* note: because of the cowl neckline on this sweater, my appliques stick out over the shoulders a bit. If you have a regular crew neck or v-neck sweater, you can apply the entire applique to the sweater without sticking off the shoulder …unless you want it to, that is.

* Following the threads of the applique, loosely hand-stitch onto your sweater OR if your sweater is acrylic, you can carefully safety pin them on underneath.
