Shredded shorts and studs have been on my mind! There are so many cute styles out there and I almost bought one for about $157. Then, lightning struck and I thought, "why not make them myself?"
And so, here it is....
Thrifted Levi's from Goodwill $7
Studs from Oregon Leather Co. $6
Sharpie
butter knife
tweezers
scissors
bleach
shallow tub
old tooth brush
Now, there are lots of great DIY videos on YouTube that will help. The best video that had great tips is posted at the bottom.

NOTE: Be sure the denim is stiff and not too soft. It will help with the studding and shredding.
