Galaxy Painted Cutoffs: Jeans Cutoffs DIY

03/12/2013

Spring is here and Isabelle will be making a new pair of DIY cutoffs every week to share here on Sew Country Chick .
 We want to inspire you to get creative with jeans from the thrift shop!
 Or maybe you have some in your storage shed ? To get the look right they need to be high waisted, of course.
Low waisted jean shorts are so 2010!
Our first pair of shorts we are showing are these GALAXY PAINTED shorts below.
Isabelle made these awhile ago and I didn’t photograph the process but they turned out so cute!
 You will need some fabric paint to make galaxy shorts in these colors:
White
Blue
Purple
Silver
If I was you I would practice on a piece of paper before I start on the shorts.
You only have one chance to get it right here….
Just sort of splotch the colors on with your brush on in cloud like forms and then use a small detail paint brush to paint little dots on the shorts to look like stars…

Far Out .
I would say these shorts classify as GROOVY……..
