SHEIN SUMMER HAUL

I finally made the leap and made my very first purchase from SHEIN.

It’s a great statement piece and can really dress up an old outfit. I started to search for where to buy some, but didn’t have much success. There wasn’t much colour or pattern options that I was interested in, so it was time for another DIY!

The key to making the perfect scrunchie is all in the measurements! I did a couple test ones before figuring out the perfect giant size scrunchie. It was actually easier to make than a normal sized one because you have more fabric to work with. Here’s how to make one.
