He doesn't want to wear them any more, but you love his old student jeans.
How about a super-simple way to upcycle those jeans and make them the new centrepiece of your wardrobe?
With upcycling, there are no limits. Whatever you have on hand, there's always something to make. If you've got the imagination!
There are no more problems of size, length or cut. Everything can be transformed.
So get your wardrobe and your man's closet sorted. Together, we're going to create some real fashion nuggets, and we're starting right now with jeans!
Now that you've got the jeans back from the gentleman, how about fitting them to your waist by shifting all the buttons to the side?
As well as being super stylish, you'll have - perhaps for the first time - jeans that fit perfectly.
Note: make sure you position the main button correctly to avoid too many creases in your crotch.
The result is great: you've got a 'new' pair of jeans that you're unlikely to come across in the street! What you're wearing is unique, and that's the beauty of upcycling.
