Ready: Put on your jeans, and measure the length of capri you'd like to make. Mid-calf is a great length for summer. Cut 'em off nice and even.

Set: Cut your fabric so that it makes a hem about three or four inches tall from the bottom of the pants (fold it under on showing edges to keep it from looking sloppy), and follow the directions on your fabric glue or Stitch Witchery (or hand sew it, crafty girl!) to secure the fabric.

Go: Fold the bottom edge under the lip of the jeans and secure it with your method of choice underneath. You'll have colorful cuffs that keep your capris in snazzier shape for those times when you want to look a little more sophis.

What you'll need: a couple of plain barrettes, some denim scraps, scissors, and a hot glue gun.

Go to town: Cut the scraps to the exact size of the barrette. Drop a dollop of hot glue on top, and press the denim onto the barrette, covering that plain clippie and turning it into a get-noticed accessory. Or, cut the denim into five or six petal shapes, attach in the middle with glue, plop a cute bead in the center, glue to the barrette, and you've got a jean flower hair thingie! Hooray!
