I really hate skinny jeans.... I prefer boot cut or bell bottom jeans! Sadly, it seems more and more difficult to find these in the shops. So... I found a pair of jeans I liked but they were skinny and I turned them into Bell bottom ones!

Although it was the first time I did something like this. I followed my grandmother instructions and here they are! Thanks grandma!

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Skinny Jeans
  • 2 Sewing Yarn
  • 1 Needle And Thread Or Sewing Machine
  • 1 packets Pins

Steps (7 steps, 90 minutes)

  1. 1

    You need to cut two triangles of fabric. You need to make the triangles before opening the leg.... but I forgot to take a picture so... sorry!

    The width of the bell depends on the jeans. In this case I only could made a medium-size bell... but If you do the same with a boot cut jeans the bell can be wider.

  2. 2

    Once you have the triangles, open the leg. Obviously, you need to open the external part of the leg.

  3. 3

    Take the triangles and attach them to the jean with pins. Don't forget to prepare the cuff of the fabric you are adding as well!

  4. 4

    Then, stitch it temporarily and remove the pins.

  5. 5

    In the picture you can see the result of the stitching process. Ready to sew it forever!

  6. 6

    Sew it with the sewing machine. I think you can also do it by hand but you'll need a specific stich (I don't know which). I'm sure you can find more information on the internet.

  7. 7

    And there go your bell bottom jeans!
