Red face PeaComm Custom Jacket - 11-04-2007, 06:34 PM

Yaaay~~! I am back! At last I did my latest diy apparel custom jacket!

I hate this Military jacket so I customised it into PeaComm- Peace Commissioner (that's my idea XDDD) -- Why are we wearing that relates to War and Militariasm?

I got rid of those cheap crappy buttons and replaced with 30cm zipper (for jacket rims) and 2x 15cm zippers (for pockets).


And this is my fav item:

How can you get two things at once?--- An ACDC logo motif and an Aerosmith song title???--- Hilarious yet the rarest (I hope, I think) find. I backstitched the patch (NEVER IRON Never lasts long) with 2mm gold beads to complement this jacket's black and gold theme.

I hope you like my latest project!


Speaking words of wisdom--- let it be.

Thanks! I'm still trying my best to make this custom jacket look cool though. Thinking of buying black coat buttons for that shoulder fabric pieces whatever you called it. Must get rid of those tacky cheap buttons----

Epaulets? I think the shoulder pieces are called epaulets? I'm not sure.

And, I love the Peace Commisioner idea. That's so sweet. I like the structure of the jacket, and I really love the gold beads you sewed onto the patch.

*checks in dictionary*... oh yea. Thanks ladyjane! I gotta think what should I do with those crappy epaulets. You like the idea? ^^" Sounds kinda funny to me... hope it sounds cool. The jacket was already like that, just want to remove the military look. The gold beads are great, like a Vegas light-up signboard XDDDD I thought I might ruin it. Turned out neat and pretty.
