Do you remember being in middle school and having friends who screwed around with their jeans? You know, maybe ripped some holes in them? Or drew on them with permanent marker? (That’s what my friends did.) Or maybe you put some rhinestones or those plastic stick-on gems that were shaped like hearts or stars or whatever.

We all thought we were so hot with our tricked-out jeans.

But we could never hold a candle to these jeans:

   

I am a little partial to the Boise State jeans because, well, any football team that plays on a blue field gets serious props in my book.

This lovely work is the brainchild of seamstress Megan over at Creative Outlet Designs. Many of these pieces are one of a kind.

A couple of pairs get put up on eBay, and she asks you to send your own jeans (so you know they fit), and then Megan works her magic to put these stunning mosaics together. Her portfolio shows a few other things as well, such as aprons and shirts.

And Megan was kind enough to have an ad right here at indie*galore! Clickety click on over and see her beautiful work … and maybe even get something really unique to wear. It’s much better than those holey jeans.
