Let\u2019s get crafty, Aerie<\/a> fam!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This season\u2019s craft-inspired details and 70s vibes<\/a> inspired us to bring a little bit of DIY grooviness to #AerieREAL<\/a> Life. So, we invited stylist & artist Mandy Mitchell<\/a> to show us how she uses her embroidery skills on three designs that add pops of color and texture to any piece of clothing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If learning how to embroidery stitch sounds intimidating, don\u2019t worry. Mandy breaks down her stitches for each design with step-by-step instructions and easy-to-follow videos. (And if your designs aren\u2019t perfect? That\u2019s what makes \u2018em unique and REAL.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read Mandy\u2019s instructions below, and watch her video to get an in-depth look at how to embroider each design by hand. Happy stitching! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
