DIY Destroyed Denim is a fairly straightforward exercise. Take sharp tool to pair of jeans and/or cutoffs; slice to heart’s content. My shredding tool of choice is the serrated blade of a wine key (no wash cycle required to achieve fully distressed look, etc.).
I recently used said tool on a pair of thrifted Levi’s shorts. The cuts looked fab as per usual, but the garment felt a bit unfinished.
A few months ago, I bought a package of 200 gold and silver clothes pins in varying sizes for absolutely no reason. I was at Staples…I wanted something shiny…whatever.
I rediscovered the pins whilst looking for something to adorn my DIY destroyed cut offs, et voila!
See?! I KNEW they had a purpose!
