How To Bleach a Pair of Jeans

Bleached jeans are the fashion. The problem? Every single pair of bleached jeans you can buy are skin tight. I personally don't want jeans as tight as they make them. I decided to bleach a pair myself. My first attempt worked great . . . then it backfired. My second try worked pretty well. It's not a drastic change because of the way I did it; but I like them.

Here's how to do it . . .

Materials:

- Bleach (any brand will do)
- A pair of jeans (maybe an old pair too, just to test it out before you try your favorite pair)
- A spray bottle (I used an old hairspray bottle)
- A place to work (I did it outside where I didn't have to worry about bleaching the house....)
 

Fill your bottle with one part bleach and one part water (some people use one part bleach two parts water. It's your choice).

Lay out your jeans. Make sure if you're working inside there is newspaper or something laid out to protect things from the bleach.

Evenly spray the bleach mixture on your jeans. The more you spray them, the more drastic the change.

Set your washer on a fast wash setting. Throw your jeans in without detergent. 

When they are done let them air dry on a clothesline. Then . . . Try them on!!!
