The 4th R


Reduce.

Reuse.

Recycle.

Restyle.

I restyled these workout pants. They were a funky pair of ankle-length yoga pants that were steadily shrinking every time I wore them. The last time I wore them to the gym I felt like I had floods on. So, I brought them home, cut them off, put a funky cuff on them and voila! Now they are sassy cropped, yoga pants.

Also, this is a great way to use fat quarters (this one was a batik).

I own several pairs of the incredibly shrinking pants! I have long legs and have the worst time finding ones long enough and then they shink. I will have to do this. Especially because I start physical therapy tomorrow and have nothing to wear (unless I want to sport a skirt or dress or pj bottoms!). Thanks for the idea.
