    pro tip: instead of going out of your way to purchase fabric chalk, you can just use a SOAP BAR (easy to see on the pants/shorts and easy to wash out). And if you don't have a cutting mat, just use cardboard, and put it in the inside of the pants legs.

    When you suggested using mens Levi’s 🤯🤯🤯 that’s brilliant!!! Higher waist, bigger pockets... now I know what to look for on my next trip to the thrift store.

    I LOVE altering clothes!!! I've been doing it since the 80's!! I always wore men's 501's and would take the legs in making them as skinny as I could get them!!! Like our jeggings today! You can't make a mistake! Just do it...its so fun!!

Guys section at the thrift store. Never fails. I came to watch again to get my go to measurements from you and I am about to cut up my mens wranglers that finally fit me! They are going to be killer. 🔥
