DIY Fringed Miniskirt


What You'll Need:
A skirt - thrift or use an old one in need of a makeover.
Sewing kit
Sewing machine
Grosgrain ribbon for the optional side-stripes
Fringe trim

Step 1:
Hem and re-fit the skirt to your liking.

Step 2: (optional)
Sew on a grosgrain ribbon to hide the large seams on the side of the skirt.
In truth, this was to hide a hole in the fabric, but I thought it looked pretty cool anyway.

Step 3:
Sew on your fringe trim using a straight or zig-zag stitch.  I used a straight stitch so that it would stay inconspicuous, and did two rows of fringe trim to give it a fuller effect.

Et voila - wear it with your matching fringed singlet!

Time to go add fringing to more stuff.  A clutch or a necklace, perhaps?
