D.I.Y. Lace Jean Shorts




Materials:
Jeans
Lace
Needle 
Thread
Exact-o Blade
Scissors


 

Start with an old pair of jeans. (Believe it or not these were my first pair of American Eagle jeans from the 6th grade - don't worry they used to be huge on me)


Measure 3 inches from the inseam of the shorts and cut one side. Fold over the shorts to make sure that you have cut the same length on both sides.


To destroy your jean shorts, cut horizontal lines through the jeans and pull the vertical strings out. 


Cut the sides of your shorts so they are not too tight. Take your pieces of lace and cut them into two rectangular pieces. Sew them onto each side of the piece you have just cut. 


And there you go :) 
It did take a little time but its perfect for summer and the beach!

Have a wonderful weekend!
