Jean Pockets

September 30, 2014 by reslife

Submitted by Sarah Brethauer, Resident Assistant, Elizabethtown College

Do you have an old pair of jeans that are so ripped and torn that they are un-wearable? Well look at the back, don’t the pockets look like the perfect size for a door tag? On that principle, I took about 15 pairs of old jeans that I either had laying around the house or ones that I bought at Goodwill for cheap. All you have to do is cut out the back pockets of the jeans, leaving it so that there is still the effect of a pocket. The great thing about jean material is that you can write on it with permanent marker or paint. I personally took puffy paint and wrote each residents name on a pocket. Now the pockets are heavier than the usual paper door tags so to make them stay on the door you have to use a mounting tape or something along those lines. They are also useful for more than just names on the door. On the first day of move in I put a piece of candy and a note for all the residents. During the rest of the semester I used it as a note drop and a way of leaving surprises for my residents, they all loved them and most still have them.
