Recently, we did our very first tag post, and it had a question
on sport, which enabled me to start waffling on about how much I love dancing. Before
that, I had somehow managed not to mention it on this blog, even though I can
hardly shut up about it in real life (just ask poor Poppy).
I do ballroom and Latin dance, or Dancesport as it’s known
competitively, and every so often I’ll be doing posts on bits and bobs related
to that. The best thing about dance, though, and particularly dance as it’s
going to feature on this blog, is that all the useful stuff I’ve picked up
about it is also easily adaptable into everyday situations, even if you’re a
non-dancer.
Bearing that in mind, this post is all about adding rhinestones to dancewear – although,
of course, you could and should add rhinestones to whatever the hell you want. It’s a bit of a fiddly process
but I’ve done it a few times now and hopefully the tricks I’ve picked up will
prove useful, whether you’re stoning a Latin shirt for dance or adding the words
‘KISS ME, IT’S CHANNING TATUM’S BIRTHDAY’ to a jumper (both valid pursuits; I
swear).
