DIY: Lace Trim Shorts

Lace trim shorts are all the rage this summer, and while I’m not keen to spend $200+ on a passing trend, I don’t mind putting in a little time to temporarily lace up my shorts. Enter DIY guru Erica Domesek of P.S. I Made This who shows us just how to do that in three easy steps.

Step 1: Snip It

Use scissors to cut two strips of trim. They should be long enough to wrap around each of the leg openings.

Step 2: Pin It

Use straight pins to fasten the trim around each leg opening.

Step 3: Stitch It

With a needle and thread, sew the trim to the inside of each leg opening of the shorts.

Voila! Easy as pie! Will you give this a try or is this too crafty for you?
