Transform old jeans into shorts to turn old things into treasure

How to do if you can't wear jeans at home? It's a pity to throw it away. Why don't we take a look at how jeans become fashionable short pants with rough edges!

Materials and tools needed to change jeans into shorts: a pair of old jeans, a pair of old fitting shorts (as a processing template), ruler, scissors, gouache, pin.

The steps to transform jeans into shorts with rough edges are as follows:

1. Put the shorts on the open pants.

2. The crotch part of the two trousers should be perfectly aligned.

3. Align and fix the crotch seams of the two trousers with a pin so that they will not move.

4. After the pin is fixed, take a ruler and align its edge with the edge of the pants leg. Tip: the cutting needs a certain angle. If you can't see the angle after aligning the original shorts with the ruler, move the ruler slightly to make the crotch side tilt down slightly, and draw the line with chalk.

5. Cut along the direction of line drawing. Pay attention that the length of the cut should be about 1.5cm longer than the actual length of the pants you need (i.e. 1.5cm away from the chalk line), because the actual length will be shorter after the rough edge is made.

6. As shown in the picture, cut the trousers short and throw them into the washing machine and dryer.

7. That's it after washing. A perfect pair of raw denim shorts.
