diy lace shorts!

mr. kate posted this DIY a few weeks ago. i had been wanting to do it but i felt weird about cutting up shorts...then i remembered an old pair i hadn't worn in a while because the side had ripped. so fear & all..i began to cut & sew. here's how it goes:

these were the orginal shorts with the tear they had.

i cut the seams & they ended up like board shorts. i thought they were too long so i did a single fold rather than multiple folds like it originally had.

i laid it out before cutting the lace. needed to get the vision first! :P

END RESULT!

they look awesome on! i'll make it an ootd! as soon as i wear them again! click here to see the original DIY video by mr. kate! :)
xo!
