Hello dear Hive creators and DIY lovers, I'm excited to be here once again.
And here today I'm sharing a simple way to upgrade your jean pants to make it look more beautiful and feminine.

So let's get started.

Some time ago, I shared

where I made a jean trouser from scratch, and then added some elegant leaf designs on both legs. I freehand-drew the leaf shapes, carefully cut out sections of the wings (I mean petals! 😅), outlined everything with white fabric paint and glitter dots,giving the trousers a nice artistic vibe.

Well I've been wearing them like that since then. But then it started to look boring to me and I wanted to twist things a little bit and give it some upgrade.
So I had the perfect Idea. I took out my pearls machine, though I was unsure of what pearls colour to use. I was thinking white or silver, which would have still looked nice, but then I wanted something more outstanding and since I love pink so much, I chose the colour.

So I was putting the pearls on the edges of each leaf designs.

And soon I was done with all the edges of each leaf, and oh my goodness, the difference is stunning

The pearls add a beautiful texture to it, and a good touch of femininity and they catch the light in he prettiest way

Now the petals look almost embroidered and 3D. I'm so obsessed 🥰

So this is a simple DIY Steps (so you can try it too!), in case you want to do this to an old Jean you have:

  • Start with any plain or old jeans you want to revive

  • Sketch your design lightly with chalk (leaves, flowers, butterflies, whatever you want)

  • Carefully cut out the inner sections.

  • Paint the outlines and add details with fabric paint, any colour of your choice depending on the denim colour

  • Patch the back with scrap fabric for stability.

  • Upgrade level: Glue on beads, pearls, rhinestones, or even embroidery for extra sparkle. Or if you have a pearls machine like mine you can use it too

This doesn't require fancy tools or sewing skills, it just needs patience and creativity. And this is a very easy and affordable way to transform boring jeans into a unique design that no one else will have. This is perfect for expressing your style and up cycling at the same time.

I hope y'all like this, and thank you so much for your time here!
