DIY: Festival Shorts


It's that time of year again! Music Festivals galore starting with the famous Coachella! I hope you are all pumped just as much as I am.  I've decided to do a fun little DIY on festival shorts that are flirty, fun and cute.


What you will need are some basic shorts and scarf that you no longer care for. 
In addition, fabric glue, scissors and brads


You will place the scarf on top of either side of the shorts and pin in it . 


Keep the pins in place as you cut along to the shape of the shorts. 


Now, get the fabric glue and trace the outline of the area.


Place the fabric on top and firmly pat it down. You can also add a fun trim. (My old scarf had a crochet trim that I decided to use on the seam of the pocket.) 


To add the brads you will need to snip a couple of holes wherever you like. 


 Simply push through the brad into the denim. 


Notice that the edges go through the fabric, so I added the excess fabric from my old scarf so as to not scrape or cut my leg. 


You are now all set to go !  I hope you had fun transforming plain old jean shorts into something fun and trendy.  

See you all at Coachella!
