Upcycling some Scotch & Soda pants to shorts!

I have so many pieces of clothing that I don’t wear-and the same three pieces I wear almost daily. In an effort to be more intentional about my clothing consumption I wanted to see how I would be able to give my current wardrobe a new life by cutting, dyeing and/or reconstructing pieces.

In addition, I wanted to challenge myself further by creating new pieces from found, donated fabrics that might have otherwise been thrown away.

 

These white shorts were originally pants that I wore maybe 5 times in the 3 years I have owned them. I decided on shorts because I wear shorts all the time-even in this crazy stormy weather!

 

I’m sure you have a piece of clothing in your closet collecting dust-what would you do with it? Tell me in the comments below! (This applies to anyone who can sew or not!)
