I won't exactly call this a Fail, but I'll say it was a good attempt. I'm going to have to re work them just a bit, though.
Zoe is pretty skinny, so she is starting to have some jeans that are just too short, but still fit her in the waist. I didn't want to get rid of them, so being inspired by Wardrobe Refashion and THIS tutorial over at Make it and Love it, I decided to try to refashion the jeans into little shorts or capris. Doesn't sound too complicated, right?
Well, it's not complicated, but I'm still a beginner, and I don't have the right kind of thread and blah blah blah. Despite her enthusiasm in these photos, Zoe's not thrilled that I cut her jeans, lol. I need to rework the hems with thicker thread, preferably in a contrasting color so it stands out. I'm happy she has another pair of shorts, but they seem a little blah to me. I'm considering cutting them shorter, and maybe sewing lace or ribbon onto the hems? Hmmm. 
I also have a pair of jeans that I want to convert to shorts for Maya, too. I'll definitely do an update post when it's finished.
And an FYI: something to look forward to: I finally have time to do a tutorial for the butterfly hair clips, so I plan to get that up tomorrow!
