Floral Pocket Shorts DIY

I can't express how excited I am for this post! This is my first ever DIY post! :) Ever since I was a little kid, I have been quite the crafter. I've never really tried too many clothing craft projects...mostly because I still need to learn how to sew! Anyways, here is my very first DIY post on how to add floral pockets to your shorts, which really goes to show how anxious I am for summer to arrive. ;) A lot of the dresses that I thrift, I usually end up shortening so I end up with lots of extra vintage fabric. This is a perfect way to put that fabric to good use!

Things you'll need:

-Shorts

-Fabric

-Scissors

-Measuring tape/ruler

-Paper & Pen

-Needle

-Thread

First: Measure the dimensions of the pockets

Next: Recreate the dimensions of the pockets on a piece of paper and cut it out.

Then: Use the paper cut out and trace it onto the fabric. Once you have it traced, cut out the fabric.

It should look something like this ^

After that: Hand sew the fabric onto the shorts. This might take some time and can be a little frustrating at times...be patient though, it's well worth it! 

And here they are! Spring & Summer ready ;)
