This is great for adjusting the fit of bikini bottoms, and the rings help keep the bikini in place (i.e. less awkward ride up in the back). Since the rings add space, you could also add these to bikinis that already fit to change the look or help stop ride up. If you want to adjust a bikini that's too small, I'd recommend purchasing larger rings to help add width to the bikini.\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\n\u003Ca name='more'\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\nI've had these brown bikini bottoms for several years, but haven't worn them in awhile because they are about a size too big. I also have a mismatched white and gold striped bikini top that I never wear because I don't have bottoms that match. I really like the bikini top because it has metal rings on the straps, so I got the idea of adding metal rings to the bottoms to help make them \"match\".\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\nNow let's get to this easy refashion. A word of warning first, I have't been properly trained in how to sew swimsuit fabric, so I don't know what is the \"wrong way\" or \"right way\" to do it. However, the way I did it seems to work just fine for me.\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\nFirst you will need the metal rings. I found my metal rectangles (1\" x 1.5\") in the purse notions section at JoAnn Fabrics. I couldn't find them on their website, but here are some options if you prefer to purchase them online:\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\n\u003Ccenter\u003E\n\u003Ciframe style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822\u0026OneJS=1\u0026Operation=GetAdHtml\u0026MarketPlace=US\u0026source=ss\u0026ref=ss_til\u0026ad_type=product_link\u0026tracking_id=shsgothno-20\u0026marketplace=amazon\u0026region=US\u0026placement=B002S52I78\u0026asins=B002S52I78\u0026linkId=UHBBRSJLN2S6NRTO\u0026show_border=true\u0026link_opens_in_new_window=true\"\u003E\n\u003C\/iframe\u003E\n\n\u003Ciframe style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822\u0026OneJS=1\u0026Operation=GetAdHtml\u0026MarketPlace=US\u0026source=ss\u0026ref=ss_til\u0026ad_type=product_link\u0026tracking_id=shsgothno-20\u0026marketplace=amazon\u0026region=US\u0026placement=B003P9T9SM\u0026asins=B003P9T9SM\u0026linkId=SUEWEITM3IRYR6WU\u0026show_border=true\u0026link_opens_in_new_window=true\"\u003E\n\u003C\/iframe\u003E\n\n\u003Ciframe style=\"width:120px;height:240px;\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822\u0026OneJS=1\u0026Operation=GetAdHtml\u0026MarketPlace=US\u0026source=ss\u0026ref=ss_til\u0026ad_type=product_link\u0026tracking_id=shsgothno-20\u0026marketplace=amazon\u0026region=US\u0026placement=B000YZ7US6\u0026asins=B000YZ7US6\u0026linkId=G2WX7U6MQARJVGIB\u0026show_border=true\u0026link_opens_in_new_window=true\"\u003E\n\u003C\/iframe\u003E\n\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\nNow let's gather our supplies:\n\u003Cp\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003Emetal rings\n\u003Cli\u003Esafety pins\n\u003Cli\u003Esewing pins\n\u003Cli\u003Ematching thread\n\u003Cli\u003Esewing machine or hand sewing needle\n\u003Cli\u003Escissors\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\n\u003Ccenter\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/photobucket.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"http:\/\/i100.photobucket.com\/albums\/m36\/shesgotthenotion\/Tutorials\/steps_zpsa7367b7f.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" alt=\"Tutorial on how to sew metal rings to a bikini bottom | She's Got the Notion\"\/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Col\u003E\n\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003ETake your bikini bottoms and cut along the side seam.
