Sacrificing Jeans


My new habit is sacrificing my long jeans by cutting them shorter.  I'm really pleased with the way these came out. I've beeen seeing a lot of jean shorts and jean capris this season and once I get home, all of my outdated or too short jeans are going on the chopping block.  


As luck would have it, there's a TJ's right around the corner from our condo.  I found myself there a few times already--this was something from one of those excursions.   I've tried to find some second-hand stores down here, but have struck out on that so far.  Of course the Mall was easy to find.

And here's a little something for all of you still suffering from winter...Just want to give you all a little taste of flowers....

  4. I did this once years ago and never again because my sense of a straight line is not so good! I had to keep cutting them shorter to even them out :-)
