Denim.
The fabric that's so durable, can seemingly last forever and is EVERYWHERE in the thrift store. The problem is, trendy jeans and jackets are rendered essentially unwearable until the trends recycle.
And that comes a quite a cost. The materials and resources needed to create denim are massive! Did you know it takes the equivalent of 61 bath tubs of water to make ONE pair of jeans?!
I found a quality denim jacket in the thrift store but it had a "sassy" patch that seemed like it walked right out of a junior high school hallway. I figured that's how it ended up in the thrift store in the first place.
I loved the jacket, but didn't want to wear it with the patch. So I got to work to upsize the jacket and give it a new look with old denim I had around the house.
This project is fun, easy, and something virtually anyone can do with old jeans or denim shirts! If you have anything you want to cover up or replace on denim, this is the way to do it! Let's get started ...
