Jeans into shorts refashion

Hi everyone :) I have a tiny refashion to share today. It took hardly any work at all and is probably something you've all done a million times but I thought I'd share anyways :)


Yesterday, I made a pair of shorts out of some old jeans that were not being worn. I love wearing shorts (with tights in winter). A girl can never have too many pairs of shorts :)

All I did was cut off the legs where I thought I wanted the shorts to sit on my leg. I didn't hem them. I'm going to wash them a  few times and see if I like the raggy look and if not, I will hem them with some pretty fabric :)

I have tons of refashions and tutorials on my blog, Mammy Made, aswell as recipes and homeschooling ideas. If you'd like to take a look, I'd love to see you over there :)

    hi you might like to make a line of stitching around the line where you might add fabric i you decide to. This is so it won't fray past that line and make it too unstable to sew the fabric hem.
    just use a similar colour of blue and it won't change the look. sometimes jeans fray rather too much in one place and not enough in another due to the twill weave.
