Quick Pants to Skirt DIY


Today's post is a quick pants to skirt transformation. I showed you the polka dot madness that was happening in my refashion pile last week, so today I am going to share the quick and easy way of turning a pair of pants into a skirt.
I started off with what I like to call an awkward pair of pants. If I were to be super lazy about this refashion, I would've kept them as PJ's - yes they were that comfy!

What you then want to do is chop off the legs:

And because this skirt would've been way too short if I didn't add on to the length, I cut out strips of fabric from one of the pant legs, added a wide thick ribbon...

Pinned and sewed it all to the edge of the skirt, and ended up with this:

Now all I need to do is wear it somewhere :)
Hope you all had a good weekend! I went wake boarding for the first time, loved it :)
