    So original cute! Hey just for reference; coffee stain works like tea stain, you just dilute it more or don't use as much and instant coffee works too! I've used coffee stain in a spray bottle and then let the item sit for a few weeks then dip in vinegar & hot water to set the stain then dryer. Your idea's lead to other ideas on how to save or use old pieces of clothing! Love the New Life in recycled Clothes that you do. We all could recycle more and you make it FUN! Thanks for more inspiration!

    I have an old pair of plaid shorts that are almost the same color. They are a little small now so they will be perfect for this project and I will be able to wear them again. I’m going to go hunt them up right now and start on them today! Thank you so much for the inspiration, Tracy. I just love your videos.

    So beautiful :) . I wish My Momma could see she is in Heaven but she loved this kind of detailing' she enjoyed needle point and crocheting'. It's so artistic ''. I love all kinds of ART, fabric is one I do the most . My canvas isn't the norm''. I enjoy cardboard like cereal boxes or food boxes to paint on. I am also painting on boy blue jeans which is taking for ever but it's worth all the time''. I was drawn to your channel when You tube sent it to me. I have already seen some of ideas I have done in the past. But yours to me is sophisticated and much more fashionably tailored''. I am a plus size girl but I ware my clothes like I am small''. I appreciate you Ladies who share on You tube your Style and Expertise . We are here to Love and make it our own''''. We All Are Important and by you Sharing it Helps Us find Who and What we can be an Inspiration to those around us ''. Thank you for all that you do and show you mean so much to your viewers (Smiles) and (Happiness) and (Peace). With A Happy Sunny Day of gray clouds you keep away ''. 💞

    It’s amazing to me how expensive some of the clothing lines similar to yours are. Your clothes are much prettier and unique. What you do looks deliberate, where the really expensive clothing companies look haphazard (meaning just throw a bunch of patches on an item and hope it works). The shorts are really cute.

    Your style is so unique. Love how you upcycle out of thrifted clothes. Can you make a statement (end of videos )on your thoughts on pricing you would list your item at? I know there are many variables to pricing. I'm wanting to supplement my income, without getting married. 🤣

    I love the tea stain look. However, I've become enamored with walnut Dye Crystals. They make my life so much easier. Very similar in look and color but more predictable and perhaps more 'planet safe'? Available on Amazon for a reasonable cost! I LOVE Your Style! Your Amazing Reuse of otherwise not so cute items...Your Passion and how you just make it easy, not over thinking any process, thereby creating an awesome piece QUICKLY! Carry on Girl...can't wait for your next amazing project! :)

      So creative and clever. If you like the look of the back of the patch, why not mix it up and add more?
      These shorts could easily be worn as every day clothing. No need to waste all if this creativity just for sleeping.

    I’m so thrilled I found your channel. I found myself in an upcycling rut and watching your tutorials has gotten me back into making projects and excited to try out some of the techniques you show like patchwork, distressing and tea staining. I especially love how unique and artistic your designs are. Thanks for another very helpful and inspiring video.

    Hello, you have so enchanted me and inspired me that I am going to try some of your processes. I have a couple of questions, and am hoping you will have the time to respond. I googled most common jean size for American women and the response was 28 waist by 30 length so could you tell me what range of waist size for mens jeans I should shoot for to start my "boyfriend jeans"? Also can you reuse the tea more than once, do you save it and reheat? Thanks so much.

    • @tmyershandmade978

    Hi Traci......I have been wanting to make these, on my giant sewing dream list....and finally today I made it happen....they are super cute🥰...I added ruffles on the hem with the extra pajama legs and Rick rack that I bought second hand. My whole wardrobe has changed because of you 😅😂🤗😍🥳
