Description 

Don't toss those ripped-up stockings! Got a run? No problem! You can wear them as is and put some dabs of clear nailpolish on the ends of the runs like in my Shredded Tights Tutorial - or try this:


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    Lay tights flat on the floor,


  2. 2
    Step 2

    then fold in half vertically, one leg on top of the other.


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Starting at the toes...


  4. 4
    Step 4

    roll both legs up towards the hips. Fold the hip area under (or cut it off).


  5. 5
    Step 5

    Secure with a couple safety pins or handstitching, and voila!


  6. 6
    Step 6

    Instant chiffon-y rose to pin on a lapel, belt, bag, or jacket pocket.


  7. 7
    Step 7

    You can also pull each leg of the tights around your neck,


  8. 8
    Step 8

    the rose up that way, and create a neck decoration.
