Leg Warmers

These Two Girls live in the North East, and up here... it is still pretty chilly.  So here is a simple DIY project for you ladies who want to stay trendy in the winter.

Supplies:
an old sweater
scissors
2 rubber bands


I paid a whopping $1.99 for this sweater at the Salvation Army. A great tip: shop kid's sections for this project. They usually have fun patterns and their clothes are always cheaper.


Cut each sleeve off right at the arm seam.


Here are your two leg warmers.


If you are feeling ambitious, you can sew a new seam up top and add elastic inside of it. I always have just used rubber bands or hair elastics though, and they work great.


So here are your brand new leg warmers! A big trend that the Two Girls are loving this winter is the slouchy socks up higher then your boots. This is a great (and cheap!) alternative.



Here's to staying warm this Winter!
