Make Your Old Bra Look Fashionably New
STEP 1: Cut out the cups of your old bra. You can use the basic sewing scissors for this step to make a cleaner cut. And throw the cups away, because we will no longer be needing that.
STEP 2: Take your black satin ribbon and wrap it around the underwire of your bra. Glue it together with fabric glue and secure it with the binder clips until it dries.
STEP 3: Cut out a part of the lace and make sure it fits the cup of your bra. You should be aware of your cup size and the fabric that you plan to use so that it results in a good fit.
STEP 4: Turn your bra so that the backside is facing up. Glue the lace on the underwire of your bra and press it firmly into place.
STEP 5: Sew the upper part of the lace to the lower end strap of your bra. While you're doing this, the binder clips should still be attached until it fully dries.

Make Your Own Stylish Beach Bra
STEP 1: Cut the spandex lycra fabric lengthwise into 6 inches. Fold these lengthwise again and secure the long edge with pins.
STEP 2: Sew the fabric shut using a zigzag stitch and turn it inside out, so you don't see the stitches anymore. The resulting look would be two long strips of fabric.
STEP 3: Fold these into half and find their middle. Cross them over each other. The resulting image would be like an X
STEP 4: Bring the ends together and wrap them around your chest as if in measurement. After marking the places with pins, sew it again so that you close off the bandeau. It should now look like a circle with a cute knot in the middle.
STEP 5: The last step is to sew the sections of the bandeau covering your chest shut.
And with those simple steps, you have an adventure-ready bra for the beach or for a summer getaway.
