From men's jeans to high waisted shorts, a step by step guide for this new trend. All you will need is a pair of men's jeans that are a bit loose, scissors, lace, sewing supplies, and bleach.
Step 1: Measure out the height of your shorts. Then, cut them accordingly.
Step 2: Get your sewing needle and thread. Measure the amount of lace you are going to use. Turn the shorts inside out. Sew the lace on the hem of the shorts. As shown below.
Add lace wherever you see fit.
Step 3: You can stop here and keep the shorts as they are or continue to bleach them. For this portion of the project, you'll need a tray or bowl to pour the bleach into. DO NOT FORGET TO WEAR RUBBER GLOVES. You can put the entire short into the tray, splash the shorts with bleach, or bleach a portion of it. Leave the shorts in the tray for 30 minutes.
Step 4: Leave the shorts out to dry a bit. Then, dry them either by hanging or using the drying machine.
Step 5: Next, hand was the shorts to get rid of the bleach.
This is definitely a cool project that costs less than actually going out to buy a similar pair. These are one of a kind shorts fitted to your specific style. Hope you enjoyed this tutorial!
