#34 JEANS
© Copyright Andrea Reynolds 2024
I've been storing Rubbermaid bins of jeans I'm not wearing. I tried on all of them to decide if any are worth altering to fit, worth selling, or worth repurposing the denim. As you can see I've written my decision on small notes and pinned them on each pair.
Here's what I decided:
A. Four pairs have hips and legs that are too big, but the waist is OK. I can take these in.
B. Three pairs have worn crotch areas. I can patch these... or just keep them as is and use them as my painting pants.
C. One pair has a waist that fits, but the legs are too long and tight. I'll offer these for sale or free.
D. One denim skirt fits well but I don't have anywhere to wear it, and it's heavy for Florida. If it doesn't sell I may repurpose the fabric.
E. Two pairs of light color (tan and pale blue) jeans fit well but I don't wear them because I prefer dark colors below my waist. I think dark colors on my legs appear more slimming. I'll sell or give away.
F. Three pairs are two small.I will either wait until I lose wait (wishful thinking) or sell them.
G. Four pairs have waist and legs that are too tight. I'll sell them because they are nearly new and have a fashion label.
H. Two pairs of lightweight dress trousers have legs that fit well but the waist it too tight. I may wait and see.
I. Three pairs of men's khaki shorts don't fit me. The waist is too small. I'll sell them.
