when i planned to go to the hope on the stage concert, i saw lots of videos of people decorating glasses. i wanted to make my own custom pair! cause if i wasn't being over the top, am i truly being me???
it was a process 😂 but after playing around with the beads and charms, i figured out a look that felt right!
some things i learned after was to be in mind of wear and tear. a lot of the cute charms and accents popped off in transit or at the show. so ill need to figure out either better charms or use ones with different materials.
i also played around with just writing on the glasses too. they were easier to make but simple at the same time.
maybe i'll make another pair for the arrang tour! these are just too cute to not have!!! time to play with some designs.
what do you think?! would you wear these? is there a pair you prefer?
... Read moreAttending Kpop concerts, especially ones like J-Hope's Hope on the Stage, offers a fantastic opportunity to express your fandom creatively. Customizing glasses has become a fun trend among fans who want to capture the maximalism vibe seen at these events. When I first started making my own Kpop glasses, I quickly realized that choosing the right materials is key. For example, lightweight acrylic charms tend to last better through the excitement of a live show compared to glued beads that may fall off.
Another tip I found helpful was incorporating writing or decals directly onto the glasses. This method not only simplifies the design process but also holds up well without worrying about pieces detaching during transit. Using permanent markers or custom vinyl stickers featuring favorite lyrics or BTS-related phrases like "Hope On The Stage" or "J-Hope 2025" can personalize your look in a neat, lasting way.
Experimenting with different styles, from bold maximalist accents to subtle, elegant motifs, allows you to convey your personality while celebrating the Kpop culture. And if you’re preparing for upcoming tours like the ARRANG tour, creating a second pair with slight variations helps keep your style fresh and unique.
Overall, customizing Kpop glasses is a fantastic blend of craft, fandom, and self-expression. Whether you prefer intricate beaded designs or minimalist inscriptions, the joy comes from making something that truly feels like ‘you’ and stands out at these unforgettable concerts.
