We all seem to know that one hippy child in our lives. The one that would love a good pair of patched jeans. However I don't have one of those kids in my life right now, instead I have a goth or two.
Now this gift is great for that teen that still loves coloring and carries around a Care bear lunch box. The Goth thing hasn't changed much in the last 15 years.
First you need a pair of men's jeans. Doesn't matter if it is going to a girl, actually this present is best suited for a girl.
You need yarn, needles, and odd and ends.
Throw the jeans down and get creative.
Remember I can't sew.
The first patch here isn't finished. I need to fix the hair. But it is a decapitated doll, carrying her own head by the hair.
Obviously a Vampire Bunny. Bunnicula LIVES!
And a nice Jester to finish it out.
Creativity is key.
More than likely they won't wear them, but end up on their wall as a conversation started. I have made similar jeans in the past, for myself (when I was a wee one) and as gifts to friends. They seem to go over rather well. Some where gorier looking than others. It just depends on who it is going to.
