So I just took a plain, boring pair of denim shorts that I've had for ages but never worn and I first just distressed two strips on one side, there are millions of tutorials on youtube to see how to do this, I've actually tried twice before and failed but today it went pretty well!
Then I found an old pair of cotton pyjama bottoms and cut two little squares out of them, I folded over the edges to make them neat and just stitched them onto the other side of the jeans using a needle and thread, I'm not too neat at sewing, that was the only thing I think could have been improved on them, but they look okay!
Lastly I just took a razor and sort of scratches at some of the seemed bits on the shorts, and just some random patches, to kind of ruff up the denim and give it more of a distressed and worn effect. And then I was done. I actually really like these and am pretty proud, I definitely will be wearing these in the garden this summer!
