Jacket to Vest DIY

I have been wanting a white denim vest for awhile since I wear my regular denim one all the time. 

Going through my closet I found this white denim jacket I had not worn for awhile. Well...I started thinking... and after trying it on and making sure it was the length I wanted for a vest I got busy...

I simply cut the sleeves off as close as I could to the seam and then put a few hand stitches around the lower half of the arm hole to tack the seam in place.

After about 15 minutes I had my new white denim vest, and I can't wait to wear it.

Sometimes we simply need to shop our own closets in order to see our clothes in a new light.

Happy closet shopping and DIYing! Is that a word?
