All you need is:
-Old Jeans (I started with a pair of white jeans I no longer wear)
-Blue Painters tape/masking tape
-Spray paint colors of choice (If you don't have spray paint at your home, you can purchase it at any craft store/home supply store for around $5)
HOW TO DO IT:
If you want a rough edge look to your pattern, rip the tape in half to give a jagged edge.
Place the tape on the jeans. Use a reference photo if you are looking to do a specific pattern, such as giraffe print, or zebra print.
Finally, spray the jeans with a light coat of spray paint. I used two different colors to give it more dimension. WARNING: Place newspaper or plastic into the jeans legs, because the spray paint may bleed through. Also, spray paint in a well ventilated area or outside. I also suggest wearing gloves.
Be careful not to over spray paint it, because the jeans will have a hard feel.
Once you have allowed the paint to dry, remove the tape. I suggest washing them alone in the washer the first time, the spray paint may wear off a bit, but it will give it more of a rustic feel.
Its a simple cost effective way to update your old jeans.
Here are some ideas of patterns you could do:
Zebra print, stripes, polka dots, waving lines, geometric shapes, snake skin pattern. Get creative!
