Lay out jeans on a smooth surface and lightly draw a line on each pant leg at your desired length for shorts
Begin cutting a straight line across on both pant legs with a pair of sharp fabric scissors for best results
Clean up loose ends and make sure both ends are even with each other and look symmetrical
Fold over the bottom of the shorts one or two times to add design. Your old, useless jeans are now improved and functionable!
