You Will Need:
- A Pair of Skinny Jeans (It doesn't matter on colour as long as it's made out of 100% cotton)
- Rough Sandpaper
- Box Cutter (or an Exacto Knife)
- Scissors
- Something sturdy that you can fit between the legs of the pants so that you don't cut through to the other side
Optional:
- Steel Wool
- Tailor's Chalk (or a Pencil or a Pencil Crayon if you don't have any Chalk handy) for the markings
- Miscellaneous materials and/or tools that you might want to add to the jeans
So Here is the Pair of Jeans that I started off with. I recommend that you buy your jeans from the Thrift Store or use an old pair that you no longer use. The jeans should be made out of 100% Cotton but these ones were 98% cotton and 2% spandex and they still turned out ok. But really and truly you should not be using jeans that are made from a blended fabric as they won't turn out as well.
