In Less Than 5 Minutes, You Can Turn Old Leggings Into Something Remarkable!

I love repurposing projects that literally involve re-envisioning. The ability to look past the thing into the crystal ball of its potential. You know what I mean? So, gather up those leggings and get ready to repurpose them into something so crazy smart! I believe this is one of the easiest DIY’s I’ve ever seen!

This doesn’t even take 5 minutes! I know a lot of us can’t pull this off, but if that’s the case, you can wear this top with a denim vest or a button up sweater, leaving the buttons unbuttoned about half way down, to add a touch of color to your outfit.

My teenage daughter went crazy over this idea because the big style these days is wearing a crop top with a skirt (long or short). I saw that a lot of the prom dresses, this year, were the tops with the midriff showing and long elegant skirts that matched. It’s pretty trendy right now! My daughter said: I just cannot believe it. I found the thing that’s been missing all my life! LOL! Sounds like a teenager, right?

If you browse Pinterest you’ll see that people are repurposing clothes by making leggings out of long sleeve tops, cut up pantyhose into headbands, and make sheer tops out of pantyhose to wear over bandeaus, cut the arms out of sweaters and wear them for leg warmers…need I say more? I’m always amazed at some of these crazy things people think up!
