Alteration Ideas

Ready-to-wear clothes have the potential to be altered to fit a custom taste or personal needs.
So, here is a couple of ideas on how to alter a pair of pants and a scarf.
*
I loved the pants and especially the pockets, but I really didn't like how long they were. 
Problem solved: I made a pair of capris which I will wear a lot while traveling. :)
*
I loved the scarf pattern and color, but I hated how wide it was. :(
Problem solved: I have a nice scarf now and I can use the second half of the scarf for something else.
