On this date, in 1873, Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis received a patent for blue jeans with riveted pockets ~ presto! The American icon, Levi's jeans were born. Let's face it, jeans are a part of us! We've all had our favorite pairs through each phase of our lives. They comfort us, they "go with everything" and they scream "American". I love my jeans!You can celebrate the blue jeans' birthday by donning your favorite jeans for the day, shopping for a new pair of jeans (don't forget to look in the thrift stores) or how about turning an old pair into something new? You can find tons of projects that turn those old blue jeans into purses, pillows, pencil holders and more by clicking HERE.
Happy, happy birthday blue jeans and thank you Mr. Strauss and Mr. Davis for helping to make our lives more comfortable.
