Denim

Denim - this week's prompt from The Sunday Creative.  I love denim, particularly old, worn out denim.  I remain faithful to my very tired 501s which must be almost 20 years old.  In our house jeans are only discarded when the children have grown out of them and this after they have been turned into shorts.  I'm not sure if the quality of denim has changed over the years but my little boy, who is 7 wears them out at the knees in no time but then again the tears are most probably caused by tumbling and throwing himself around the garden, which my eldest son didn't do as much.  This being said mine are not in much better shape and yes I do go out in them!



Nothing is wasted, cut-off legs are used to create cushion covers.

  5. I love your cushion covers! My denim wearing days have come to an end, ever since I had my children, those things just do not fit right! I can keep dreaming though because I do remember how I loved my jeans!

    Thank you for the beautiful blogger award, and sorry I am so slow with my response. It is so sweet of you. Now, tell me the secret to posting it on my blog. Have not learned all the details of blogging.
