This is the skirt I made for my daughter out of an old pair of my husbands jeans. It was super easy. It took maybe an hour from start to finish.
I cut the legs off the jeans & cut the heavy seam from the legs & the cuffs. Then I took those pieces & sewed them together. I made a casing at the waist & added elastic & then hemmed it. I added the lace trim & voila! it was finished. She loves it by the way 
.
Nothing fancy but a nice play skirt & since it was completely FREE you have to love it. I am thinking about adding some back pockets just for fun but not sure yet....
And, just for fun, here is her goofy little brother getting in on the action...
Blessings.
What a great idea! I love the skirt it is very cute. Her goofy bother is cute too. Thank you for sharing you got my mind going. Hubby has about 8 pairs of jeans he out grew just sitting around, hmmm. Thanks, mj

ReplyDeleteGreat Idea - I actually have two pairs of jeans sitting at home that I was trying to find a way to recycle them - you've given me a great idea.
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is a beauty! I love the skirt, what a great idea. I love reusing things I alreayd have around the house and this is a great example.

That is such an adorable skirt for your daughter. It gives me a great idea for my husbands old jeans - and we need a lot of his jeans to cover skirts for all of our daughters.
