Made from Recycled Valentine's Day Lace
We gently removed the lace from a Valentine candy box. You can also use the lace from old clothes, curtains, or linens. Ages 7 and up.
You need:
Plain Denim Shorts
8" of 3" Lace for Pockets
3' of 2" Lace for legs
No-Sew Fabric Glue
Instructions:
Wash and iron lace. Glue a piece of wide lace to the top each of each pocket of the shorts.
Turn shorts inside-out. Run a bead of glue along a portion of the bottom of the leg. Press lace into place. Continue gluing and pressing lace into place until done.
