Custom MAMA Cropped Denim Jacket

Who doesn't love a denim jacket? I've seen a lot of people with cropped denim jackets lately and loved the look, but another denim jacket is the last thing I needed so I decided to make my own with an older one I had.
I wasn't particularly fond of this jacket in general. It was too stiff and not one I would miss, so I decided to cut right above the 2nd button from the bottom.
After I cropped it I distressed the hemline by just pulling at some of the threads.
But I wasn't done there I wanted to make this a custom Mama jacket as well. I got these letters from Amazon and ironed them on the back.
I love the look of the block lettering!
Finally, I used a cheese grater to distress the jacket some more.
I didn't overthink cutting the jacket or the parts I distressed, I just kind of did it randomly.
With Mother's Day right around the corner I think this is a perfect gift for a mama in your life or a gift for yourself.
Enjoyed the project?
