DIY Fashion - Iron on studs

Studs have been in fashion for quite a while now and it doesn't look like they are going anywhere soon. I have for at least 3 years wanted a studded classic biker jacket and have even bought a stud gun to stud my current jacket, but all I did was get holes in my jacket. But I found these iron on studs that look simple and easy to place in rows and stud a jacket, a hundred sound a lot but if you are planning to stud a lot I would buy more.


or here are some that are more of a statement 


here are the results



I placed them in lines carefully and pressed them with hair straighteners to fix in position. I really like the result and the studs stay on pretty well. I have been wearing this jacket for like 4 weeks and only 2 or 3 have fallen off. The only thing is that the rows took ages to do and it's hard to get right so I bought this which is more expensive but a lot easier on hard-to-stud items. 







Here's the cap studded up, I melted the brim with an iron trying to make it flat and tried to own it by melting all of it (£30 for a leather cap and not all of it is leather?)
