How to age jeans at home?

Jeans are a versatile piece of clothing that every girl has in her wardrobe. They are suitable not only for every day or for walking with friends, but also often found when creating a business or evening look. Each season, designers offer us new colors, styles, lengths and finishes.

Today jeans with an antique effect are in great demand. To achieve this effect, special chemicals and silicate sand are used in production. But if you wish, you can independently give your favorite pair of jeans the effect of antiquity.

Many girls like worn jeans that have a slightly faded color. You can achieve this effect at home using one of the color-changing methods.

• You should take a large saucepan and fill it up to half with water.
• When the water is heated to boiling point, then you need to add a little bleach.
• Then tie the legs into a knot and dip them into the container.
• Boiling for 10-15 minutes will be enough to create a slight effect.
• The maximum cooking time can be almost an hour.

Washing in a washing machine is a modern way to "age" jeans, but less effective than the first way.

• It is necessary to put the jeans in the washing machine, and fill in the powder with bleaching particles.
• Select the longest cycle at the highest temperature.
• Several cycles need to be done.

This method allows you to create jeans with small patches of wear.

You should take a small piece of fabric, saturate it with bleach and rub it in the right places of the jeans, where you want to achieve a frayed effect.

For lovers of prints, you can use special stencils. Such a drawing will look impressive and fresh.

To create a pattern of fine lines or to process only the edges and seams of the product, you need to take a cotton swab after soaking it in bleach.

• First, the jeans must be discolored using bleach or potassium permanganate.
• Then re-paint with natural dyes - tea, coffee or wine.
• You should brew tea or coffee, then gently sprinkle your jeans, at the end you can even spread coffee grounds or tea leaves on the legs. The jeans should be left in this form for half an hour.
• The new color will pleasantly surprise and delight you.

To make the aging effect look more believable, you can make holes and frayed jeans on your jeans:

• First you need to decide on the places.
• Make small cuts with scissors.
• Pull out the threads to increase the size of the holes.

To create scuffs that look interesting and stylish, you need sandpaper, brick, or plain pumice. You need to put on jeans and rub them well at the seams and on the bends using one of the above tools.

Today, fringed jeans are back in trend. If you want to decorate your favorite jeans, then you need desire and some free time.

• First, you need to make two cuts along the seams at the bottom of the legs using a sharp blade.
• Carefully draw out all the horizontal threads using a large needle.

Each method will give your jeans a vintage look. To increase the effect, you can use it in several ways. For example, bleach jeans and then add holes. Thanks to your imagination, you can easily create an exclusive item and stand out from the rest, because everyone will notice your fashionable bow.
