I love distressed anything furniture + clothing. The perfectly imperfect is what makes things beautiful and full of character. I also love to DIY + share. Below I’m going to show you how to make your own distressed leggings or jeans in 3 steps and with 3 items. This will take you less than 10 minutes to make
Leggings or Jeans of choice
Scissors
Chalk
Put your leggings on and use the chalk to mark a line where your knees are and anywhere else you’d like to add distressed slits. I did my knees and some at my thigh.
Take your leggings off. Fold them so the inseam is visible. You want to make sure you don’t cut into it. Align them up so it’s laying nice and flat. You want your line to be straight not slanted or V shaped.
Cut your lines! I varied mine in size to keep it interesting but feel free to make them all even. Now enjoy!!
Best part is you can use this same technique for any pair of pants… EVEN jeans! If you make them let me know how they turned out in the comments!
