DIY: Tie Dye Jeans

DIY: Tie Dye Jeans

 

Get that high priced designer look at a fraction of the cost! Similar to True Religion, Current/Elliot, J Brand and other super expensive luxury brands. If you're like me, then the idea of a haute look minus the high price tag sounds delightful.

Here's a tutorial I found that can make that possible. All you'll need is:

 

A bucket

A pair of old jeans

Bleach

Thick rubber bands

Rubber gloves.

 

Soak your jeans in cold water and then wring them out.

 

Bind the jeans with several rubber bands. The rubber bands will prevent the bleach from penetrating the fabric (i.e.: the more rubber bands, the less bleached areas).

 

Using your gloves, do a 50/50 mix of bleach to water in your bucket. Submerge the wrapped jeans into the bleach-water mixture for 15-20 minutes.

 

Once you're happy with the color, safely dispose of the bleach-water and rinse the jeans in cold water. Let your jeans dry and wash them separately from your other clothes.

 

If you try this tutorial tell about your finished projects, I'd luv to know how it works out for you!
