Jazz Up a Jacket

Make over a thrift store jacket with a cool monogram!

Want to jazz up your wardrobe for just a few dollars? With Joy Iron-On Embroidered Letters and a thrift store jacket, you will be looking stylish in no time! You will need:

• black jacket
• Joy® Iron-On Embroidered Letters - 3" and 1 1/2" Script Monogram - white
• beaded trim and applique iron-on
• fabric glue
• iron
• scissors

Instructions: 1. Cut a piece of beaded trim to fit the length of each pocket opening.

2.  Attach beaded trim to all pocket openings (breast pocket and 2 lower pockets) with fabric glue. I used Fabri-Tac from Beacon Adhesives.

3. Following directions on the package, iron the 1 1/2" letter to the breast pocket, directly under the beaded trim.  The monograms are available in black or white.  The white embroidered letters can also be colored with fabric markers to match the trim if desired, as shown below.

4.  Iron the rose appliqué and the 3" letter onto the back of the jacket.

And that's it - a fun, "new" jacket with no sewing involved!

Look for Joy® iron-on embroidered letters and numbers at your favorite craft store. They're available in different sizes, colors and fonts, suitable for every occasion.
