If jeans seem old and unfashionable to you, do not rush to throw them away. A little imagination and materials at hand will allow you to turn them into a work of art. And most importantly, no one will have similar ones. Depending on your mood and lifestyle, they can be turned into bright and defiant or modest, but very stylish.

Step 1
The most interesting way to decorate jeans is with embroidery. Today there are several different techniques for creating a pattern: cross stitch, satin stitch, French knots, ribbon embroidery. On the net you can find hundreds of thousands of beautiful designs for decorating trousers. These can be small compositions that will be placed randomly on the entire surface of the fabric, there can be designs suitable for pockets, or you can take a large image that will decorate all jeans. When choosing an embroidery, evaluate your possibilities. This is a rather painstaking work that takes time. Do not select too small stitches to speed up the process.
Step 2
Jeans with scuffs and holes do not go out of fashion today. It is not difficult to create such an effect. Choose a location where this effect is appropriate. To make a hole, use the blade to make two horizontal parallel stripes. Pull the vertical strings between them manually. It is convenient to do this with tweezers. The longitudinal threads will remain, they can be tied a little. Today this effect is very relevant. To scuff up, grab some sandpaper and start rubbing your pants. Just a few movements will change the look of the thing. But remember that it will not be possible to return everything to its original form.
Step 3
Appliques and patches are also a fun way to decorate. There are special glue-based designs in sewing stores. They are applied to the fabric, ironed, and they successfully adhere to the clothes. Most often they are made for children, but adults also have something to choose from. Please note that such a thing can come off with frequent washing, so the edges of the pattern can be neatly sewn to the surface of the trousers.
Step 4
Metal details can also decorate any jeans. It will be very original if you put a lot of pins on the leg. Catch them one after the other quite close, at a distance of about 1 mm. You can make them only in a section, you can sideways along the entire leg. Add a few metal chains to the same jeans, fasten them to the belt. Various rivets, buttons of the same style will also decorate the thing, and it will become very individual.
