Shorty come home.

I made shorts for Hendrix! I wish I had tried this much sooner because I would not have bought him any new pairs this summer. It was easy witthis tutorial.  
  
I made them from an old men's button up I bought at a thrift store a while back. Ugly prints on men's shirts= very cuttoddler shorts. 

The pocket from the front of the shirt conveniently becomes a back pocketThis shirt only had one pocketbut with a two pocket shirt, you could have them on both sides. 
  

I made a couple mistakes, but I couldn't believe how cutthey turned out! I think I will be making his every pair of shorts until he decides he is too cool for elastic waistThat's still cool in high school right?
