The ability to make old things new is expensive. And for sure, every girl at least once tried to do something like this - for example, decorate an old T-shirt with her own hands , sew on a favorite backpack applique or make a new bag of old jeans and the like.
Probably, if we rummage in the closet, each of us will certainly find there jeans that have not been worn for a long time. It can be knickers of coarse thick denim or stretch pants that do not look too new and fashionable to continue wearing, or just bored with you, which is also often the case. In any case, the blockages in the cabinets and the situation when there are many things, and nothing to wear, are familiar to every girl, because throwing away what you once loved and carried with pleasure is always not easy. But there is a way out, because you can always make stylish denim shorts with your own hands.
How to make shorts from old jeans?
Make jeans fashionable shorts very simple, but the model of jeans should also be suitable. For example, any jeans pants with a low waist are ideal, but shorts made of jeans with an overstated waistline will not look very good.
In addition, tight jeans are ideal for shorts, but trousers, where the flare starts from the hip, as well as banana pants - is an inappropriate option.
Today we will replenish our wardrobe with ragged denim shorts made with ombre-style hands.
- For this we need old or podnadoevshie jeans. We will put them on ourselves and in pencil we will note the length of future shorts.
- Cut off the leg with scissors along the line. In the same way we do the second leg.
- Now we have shorts on the surface, which does not spoil from bleach, or which is not a pity to spoil. Take the whiteness or bleach and pour it into the nebulizer. Mentally we divide the shorts in half horizontally and squirt the whiteness in the lower half of the shorts - front and back.
- Let them lie down for about fifteen minutes. When the shorts are discolored they must be rinsed in water (do not wash).
- To make the fringe on the bottom of the shorts, take scissors, or any sharp object, or sandpaper and rub them around the edge of the cut shorts. You can pull and patch the edges of the fabric with your hands.
- Now we will make creative holes in shorts, for this we need to fold the shorts and cut with scissors, and then pat them with their hands. Make such cuts in several places. Then the shorts should be washed in the washing machine, adding a powder, so that the smell of whiteness is not felt and to cut out the incisions even more.
- The next step is the design of rhinestones and rivets. We will need a set of thermo-rivets that are glued with an iron. Lay out the rivets in any order you like on shorts, put the cloth on top and iron it.
- Rivets and rhinestones can be decorated with shorts both front and back.

Here is the result of our efforts! Your wardrobe is filled with new shorts, and we spent a very little time and money on it.
Denim shorts with sequins
Another great variant of the decor is to sew on the shorts of the sequins. To start, apply a simple ballpoint pen pattern or pattern, and then patch or paste the rhinestones. Of course, if you use a needle and thread, and not glue, you can be sure that the appliance will not get around during the washing process.
Denim shorts with lace
Denim shorts with lace, which every fashionista has today, is also not necessary to buy. For this we need all the same shorts from old jeans and any pieces of lace fabric. Specialty stores sell lace with a special label on the back, which is attached to any fabric if ironed with iron. You can also buy a special transparent glue and attach the lace to your shorts yourself.
How else can you decorate your denim shorts with your own hands? Beads that mimic pearls will help you in this. Such shorts can be worn not only in everyday life, but also worn in a nightclub.
