I cut up an old pair of jeans for another project and didnt want to just throw away the left overs... i used things i had in my craft froom so this project was free for me. heres an idea I had for the pockets. comes in handy when you wear an outfit that doesnt have pockets itself and u dont want to carry a purse.
heres my first tutorial!

Instructions
-
1
first take a pair of old jeans with back pockets. (this works best with jeans that have lids to their pockets, like a button or zipper.)
chalk outline some tabs and cut it out, keeping the pocket intact.
-
2
this is what it will look like. do not cut off the back when cutting out the pocket!
-
3
i added eyelets to the tabs so i could string ribbon through so it would hold to my wrist. (if your tabs are long enough and can meet around your wrist then a button and hole would work too.)
