If you plan to buy or make your handmade bikini top, you should first consider the design you want for it. A top made of a material like a chiffon can be transformed into something different and more fashionable. On the other hand, if you are the type who likes to stick to the basics, then a simple bikini top made of silk can look stunning on you. If you can do this, you will also save money since the price of all handmade swimwear will surely be lower than those that can easily be found in the market.
You can start making your top by cutting it from a piece of material with an inch or two of the length and its width. This will be the raw material that will be transformed into a perfect top. You can start this by cutting a square about one inch by one inch in length, and you should also add one inch onto the width so that you can make a perfect one for your personal use. After cutting the top into several pieces, you will have to sew them together using a seam ripper.
Once all the seams have been sewn, you should now turn your attention to the embellishments you would like to put into your top. You should consider buying wire for underwires, but for anything else, you can also create your designs and patterns with some thread or needle. When doing this, just be sure that you are following instructions carefully to avoid any accidents. Once you have finished your creation, you can now enjoy wearing your newly made top.
