facebook Pintrest There’s something comforting about slipping on a good pair of denim jeans. We wear them until they are worn out and sometimes buy them to look already worn-in. It pains to throw away old jeans, which is why a lot of us stash of holey, worn-out pairs stored in the back of my closet. It also feels wrong because the rest of the jeans are still intact, except for those darn holes. The obsession we have with blue and black jeans means we may accumulate a pile of sturdy jean fabric to make these denim upcycling ideas.
