DIY NEON CUFFS
2nd January 2012
To add to my series of DIYs using nought but a bottle of neon spraypaint (bag and necklace), I present a set of DIY neon cuffs inspired by none other than Sass & Bide (who else?). Double cuffs have been the arm party guests of choice for a while now, so why not wrap your wrists in neon? This is another one of those projects that is so simple you could do it with your eyes closed, and drunk. Hope you like – and aren’t sick of seeing projects involving spraypaint!
This was my inspiration.
You need:
A set of cheap cuffs (you can use leather, plastic or metal)
Neon and white spraypaint (non-toxic!)
How to:
1. Wipe your cuffs clean.
2. Lay on some scrap paper in a well ventilated space and spray with white. Do a number of light coats to fully cover.
3. Once the undercoat is dry, spray with neon yellow.
4. Leave to dry overnight.
Done!
Wearing: DIY neon cuffs, DIY distressed denim shorts, Nat-sui flats, Insight tribal printed bikini, raffia bag from bali, Karen Walker sunglasses.

Nope not sick of the awesome spray paint at all!! I love all the ways you have used it so far. Those bangles are so rad. Such a great statement
Such a great DIY project. I think they would look a little more finished with a coat of clear gloss, but I like the matte look as well. Cute!

Not sure I will ever tire of neon spray paint. Have plans for a leather bag of mine, but keep debating between neon yellow and bright neon orange. Tough decisions we crafty girls have!
I am still loving neon. That pop of color from these cuffs is perfection. Awesome job!!
Best,
