Makeover Old Denim Shorts For A Fun New Look

By Susan

Ever have a pair of shorts that were a bit too short but you hated to toss them out? When Cindy who blogs at Upcycled Design Lab ran into this problem, she decided to have some fun with them, using left over denim from a previous denim skirt project.

With a small amount of sewing and a little dye, her old denim short shorts went from too short and out-of-style to fun and fab. Such a creative way to solve a problem. If a designer did this, you would pay a fortune for these in a boutique store!

Makeover Old Shorts

 

Cindy has written a tutorial showing exactly how she lengthened her shorts and how she achieved such a cool looking tie-dye effect.

You’ll find her tutorial at her blog here: Upcycled Denim Lab
