Altered/embellished denim shorts
  • Bought shorts at goodwill
  • Cut off top half of waistband. Topstitched and frayed.
  • Trimmed hem in front. Topstitched and frayed.
  • Added leg trim because they were too short in the back
  • Added trim on pockets to stabilize saggy pockets
  • Added trim on side of leg for aesthetic. Frayed side trim to blend in.
