Description

This is a fun little denim vest made from 2 pairs of mens thrifted jeans with stretch. Added boning for shape & some girlie denim ruffles & flowers around the neckline. Also put on some rivets, zipper pulls, & buttons ‘harvested’ from the jeans. Besides stabbing myself repeatedly with the needle trying to adhere the ruffles, it was an all around blast making this!

Material Notes

denim jeans (some with stretch), rivets, buttons, zipper pulls, cotton lining, boning
