Whether you call it a brassiere, bra, over-the-shoulder boulder holder, or anything in between, we all know what these lingerie items are used for. Most of us have stories of moments where our bras have been annoying, frustrating, irritating, or painful. And don’t even get us started on how some bras can be so boring, we’re glad they’re worn under our shirts. So, if you’re looking for some quick and easy ways to spruce up your bras? We’ve got you covered with our list of 20+ DIY hacks!

How to Properly Store Your Bras

Storing your bras correctly actually has a huge impact on how long they will last. For example, while simply throwing them into your underwear drawer may be convenient, don’t be surprised if you start to find wear-and-tear on your bras a bit sooner than expected.

By just placing your bras upright into the drawer and layering them neatly, you will be sure to get much more use out of them. This storage method will also make it much easier to look through your bras and find the one that you need.

Create a Stylish Strapless Bra

Who says that strapless bras have to be plain and simple? If you fancy yourself a bit of a seamstress and are looking for a way to give your boring old strapless bra a bit of life, then look no further than this DIY project.

Start by separating the cups of the bra from the back strap section along the vertical seam. Then, simply attach three sections of material to this vertical seam to create the new back straps.

Create an Anti-Slip Strapless

Even if you don’t have the biggest chest in the world, we all can agree that getting strapless bras to stay in place is nearly impossible. However, you shouldn’t have to avoid your favorite strapless dress just because your bra isn’t playing along!

Instead, attach a single bra strap to the back of your strapless before wrapping it around the front of your body and attaching the other end. This will hold your bra firmly in place and prevent any unwanted slipping.

Turn your Old Bra into a New Top

Have an old bra lying around that you don’t wear anymore? With just a few basic DIY supplies, you can use it to make yourself a brand-new, stylish top on a budget! All you will need are some material flowers in the color of your choice.
