I have a quick little DIY to share with you today. One of my favourite pairs of tights got a gigantic run in them but, being the hoarder that I am, I just couldn't part with them. Instead of tossing them in the trash I decided to turn them into a cute pair of socks. It was very complicated so I will share detailed step by step instructions.

I have a quick little DIY to share with you today. One of my favourite pairs of tights got a gigantic run in them but, being the hoarder that I am, I just couldn't part with them. Instead of tossing them in the trash I decided to turn them into a cute pair of socks. It was very complicated so I will share detailed step by step instructions.

Instructions

  1. Small sockdiy3

    Locate some tights that have a run, a stain or something equally disappointing near the top.

    Get some scissors and cut the bottoms off of your tights. I cut them off right under the run because I wanted tall socks. You could cut them longer or shorter depending on your preference.

    Put them on and enjoy your fancy new socks! They tend to roll a bit so I folded them over. Phew, that was tough. ;)
