Not Mom Shorts
here are my completed thrift store shorts!

I cut them to the desired length, frayed the edges, and I had to take the side seams in a bit to make them fit just right

I added a beaded detail up the side because I couldn’t find studs :( and I cut some slits along the pocket to rough them up a bit

lastly I added a Yin Yang side to the back pocket :)
and for reference here is what the shorts looked like before I started
