New capris from old pants

Sadly these super cute jeans couldn't withstand a recent growth spurt. I hated the idea of retiring them after only a few months so I consulted my amazingly creative friend Dana who suggested I make them into little capris.
Please excuse the dirty pant leg, I couldn't wait an entire hour to wash them, I wanted to start the refashion ASAP.
I really like the way they turned out... and I really, really like that I don't have to buy another pair of shorts for the warmer months!


Thanks Dana for being so inspiring in the creative department!!

Okay, that's totally how I pictured them when we were talking about it! Fun that we were on the same wavelength. Seriously, REALLY cute. Maybe I'll have to try this too! :)

those are darling! i'd pay big money for them. too bad sarah's growth spurts are always around the middle...makes refashioning difficult.
