DIY Denim Shorts from Jeans!

Hellooo! Today i started a new project, to make myself some shorts for summer put of some old jeans! This so much easier than i thought, and i thought id share with you guys just how simple it is!
First, take your jeans and stick them on! Draw a pencil mark on one of the legs as to where you want to cut them. Take them off and fold them in half length ways, so you get an equal cut on both sides.
Next thing you want to do is cut the legs off. Take some sharp scissors and cut across the line you marked, both sides together.
Then you set yourself up (outside if possible) with newspaper on the floor and rubber gloves on. Take an old sponge and dip it in bleach. splurge the sponge all one the bottom of the shorts, putting less on the top half to give a gradient effect. You could also try putting less on the edges to give it a dip dye feel.
Last thing to do is take some scissors or a grater and snag along the ends for a destroyed feel. Cuts some snags and holes in them too if you want to!
See, super easy and so effective! I hope you enjoyed this, be sure to like and comment if you'd like to see more DIY posts!
