Trash to Treasure Sweater Welcome Back to the May Arts Blog! Recently
Trash to Treasure Sweater Welcome back to the May Arts Blog! Recently I decided it was time to go through my closet and drawers and do some weeding out of clothes I no longer wore. This sweater still had lots of wear in it but the boxy cut and tie at the neckline made it a candidate for the donate pile. That is, until I received a roll of May Arts Denim Ribbon! I couldn’t believe the transformation! The first step was absolutely the hardest…cutting the sweater apart. I found using a cutting mat, ruler and rotary cutter to be the best way to get a straight line. Place the cutting mat inside the sweater, line the ruler up and cut! I just snipped the ties with scissors. Next, measure your sweater from the bottom edge to the top. Cut May Arts 1 ½ inch Denim the length of your sweater plus one inch for folding under. Wash and dry your ribbon, then, using an iron, fold and press lengthwise. Fold under 1/2 inch at the top and bottom. Pin and sew close to the unfolded edge. I could have stopped there but I decided to make an easy denim flower pin to adorn the sweater. A pin back means it can be removed and added to another outfit. Simply cut a length of May Arts Denim ribbon, hand pleat and sew along the edge to secure the pleats. You can make the pin as big or small as you’d like. Fold into a spiral then add a few hand stitches to secure your flower shape.

A Gentlemen in Style on and Off the Field, Darion Weatherspoon ! Rachel George " 3 Weeks Ago # Bossy, Interviews, the Bosses
A Gentlemen In Style On And Off The Field, Darion Weatherspoon ! Rachel George " 3 weeks ago # Bossy, Interviews, The Bosses Since the release of the How to Be a Gentleman etiquette book by Enitan Bereola II five years ago, men have often battled with the ideal of being the ultimate gentlemen.What to say. How to say it. When to say it. How to behave. But many leave out one thing, what to wear; what is the “gentleman look?” Darion Weatherspoon, a Clark Atlanta University student athlete, plans to help other men find their “gentleman look” on and off the field. His hands are good for intercepting passes and stitching loose hems. The Las Vegas native plays the defensive back position for the Clark Atlanta University Panthers; learning culture and tradition from an HBCU perspective while juggling practice and his course studies in Fashion Design. He was groomed to be a successful gentleman, made to speak with poise, walk with dignity and to never embarrass himself. “Being a gentleman is not all about what you wear, it’s a lifestyle,” he explained. His acquired love for fashion came in the seventh grade, styling his typical collar shirt uniform with sweater vests and bow ties. Fun fact: he has over 40 bowties. “As men, we are a dominant force and we have to look like such,” he notes. He is self-restrained and full of excitement and knowledge, including all the makings of a true renaissance man at 21-years-old. He buys his clothing from Goodwill, Salvation Army, Lucky Exchange and any other unique thrift shop in Atlanta, adding his own alternation and accessories.
