{DIY} Quote-worthy Sunnies

DIY-TypoSunnies-5

Summer is here in full swing and it’s important that you protect your precious little eyes, and that you do it with style.  This DIY is super easy and inexpensive.  All you need is a pair of plain white sunglasses (I like the feel of the velvety-rubber kind, but you can use the hard plastic, too), a sharpie in your favorite summer color and your favorite summer quote.  That’s it!  I found my glasses for $5 at Rue21, but you can find them anywhere.  Try Forever21, Urban Outfitters, PacSun, Tilly’s, etc.

First, use a dry paper towel to wipe away any oils or dust that might be residing on your sunnies.  Then, with a steady hand, start writing out your quote.  I found this quote on Pinterest and fell in love with it right away.  I also thought it was pretty appropriate, too.  I used a fine tip green sharpie, because my lenses are green, but you can use any color.  Be sure to watch your hand and the wet Sharpie.  I smears super easy at first.  I recommend that you let them dry for at least 30 minutes, especially if you’re using the hard plastic glasses.  Once dry, wear and enjoy!  That’s it!

      Thanks, lady! You know me, any way that I can incorporate Sharpie’s into a project, I’ll do it!
