Cook Clean Craft: Men's Jeans to Toddler Pants Tutorial
I've seen a few blog posts for converting men's pants or jeans to toddler-sized jeans, but they all seem to involve a lot of seam-ripping, deconstructing and lots of sewing. I was after a quicker and easier way - I get limited time at the sewing machine each week, and I want to see results! Also, the pants I had picked up cheaply at the thrift store had an unfortunate blow-out, so I needed to work around this: I prefer flat-front pants (where there is only elastic in the back) as I think they look a bit snazzier, but you could erasily do this with a full elastic waist. Here's my quick and easy method to convert thrifted mens pants into toddler/boy pants: Materials Required Men's jeans or pants Elastic to fit in waist-band (I about 9 inches of 1/2 inch wide elastic) Thread Sewing Machine Serger/Overlocker (optional) Scissors Seam ripper Procedure Step 1.
