Hey girlies :) For the past 6 months diy pearl jeans have been on my to do list and I finally did it this past weekend and knew I had to share here. Saturday mornings are my favorite for crafting. I wake up pretty early and Chris sleeps in so I usually have the mornings to myself and it works out perfect for doing all my little diy projects.
All you need is a pair of jeans, pearls ( I think two different sizes looks best), needle, & thread.
Decide on a general pattern of where the pearls will go. I went with one leg but you could do both sides...that would look cute too. Sew on pearls by going through the inside of the pant leg. Loop through the hole of the pearl twice to secure it down and then add another pearl. I spaced mine about an inch apart and was able to get about five pearls added before needing to put a new piece of thread on the needle. It really just depends on the length of thread you start out with. Keep adding pearls until you are happy with the amount you have. Just a tip, but I think it's good at some point to try the jeans on to make sure you are not placing the pearls to far on the inside of your thighs. This project is super simple and fast. It only took me about 30 minutes to finish...all you need is some good tunes to listen to while doing it. Currently I'm hooked to hearing Demi Lovato's Sorry Not Sorry song.
This is such an easy project to whip out on the weekend...let me know if you give it a try.
