Everyday Creative: Cut your old jeans into a perferct looking shorts!

Since the monsoon season has just begun, and its still mostly hot and humid outside, shorts is the best thing to wear to escape this heat.If you buy a branded one, you'll end up spending around Rs.1000 for a little and plain piece of denim.So i suggest that you take out that old pair of jeans and cut it into shorts!I think this is something we all have tried doing but ended up ruining the jeans. So now i'll show how to perfectly cut 'em!

Okay so here goes..

Take the inch tape and measure the length of the shorts that you want and make a small mark from the chalk there.
Now, cut the jeans. I suggest that you leave an extra margin and then cut. I did this and found it very helpful as i wanted to fold it up like in the pic. Also it made the sewing easy.
Now, fold the jeans and cut the other leg carefully so that the length of both legs is same.

Fold the jeans. 2 or 3 folds will be sufficient. If you dont want to fold it, you can also add a beautiful white lace. Laces are very much in this season. Or you can also just sew it neatly to keep it simple.
If you are going to keep it folded permanently, then sew it along the fold. If not, leave it like that. Also if you're adding lace to your shorts, make sure that you sew it neatly.
