DIY: Changing An Old Denim Jacket Into A Cool Vest

Here's anoher DIY project I'm coming with. I bought an old H&M denim jacket in a thrift store. It was too big for me as the size is L. But it costed only 1,60 USD, so I got it. I decided to make a nice, pimped up denim vest out of it.
Here's what I did step by step.
 
Here's the denim jacket. (Click to enlarge photos)
I cut off the sleeves, but it was still too large from the sides so...
... I marked with a pencil how much I need to cut off from the sides and I did cut them. Then I took a needle and thread and sawed the sides back together.
 
Ok, now it fits perfectly. But still needs some touch ups.
To pimp it up I used studs and placed them on the shoulders.
Voila!
