A DIY Jacket With Tons Of Different Options

Hi my lovelies!

Now you guys know that I am a little DIY mad. So, roughly a month ago I started working on a new project and I can finally share it with you! 

Below I have written all of the steps I took to create my masterpiece.

Hope you like it!  

- I started off with my £6 denim jacket. I found this one in a charity shop.

-I then used several elastic bands and 'tied' the material into bunches

- After placing the jacket in the bath, I added thick bleach straight from the bottle and left it for an hour.

- Onvce I was happy with the result, I filled the bath with enough water to cover the jacket. By doing this you create a bleach bath. I did this to fade the colour of any of the denim that had not been touched by the neat bleach.

IF YOU LIKE, YOU CAN LEAVE YOU JACKET LIKE THIS. (OPTION ONE)

- A few days later I decided to add some colour.
- I hung the jacket on a hanger, placed it on the washing line in my garden and used a purple a pink dye to fill in some of the white patches.
- I left my jacket to dry and then I put it in the washing machine to wash out the excess dye. I always find, by leaving the dye to dry into the fabric, you get more of a strong colour.
THIS IS OPTION TWO AND YOU CAN LEAVE IT HERE. YOU CAN ALSO YOU AN ARRAY OF DIFFERENT COLOURS!



- My last little modification included studs, of course. I purchased mine from ebay. £2 for 200 and they came within 3 weeks from China. (you must plan ahead if you have a time limit.)
There are a huge variety of studs, spikes and other adornments you could use to fancy up any piece of clothing.
THIS IS OPTION THREE

I am so, so happy with how my jacket turned out. I'm just waiting for some ideal weather to wear it. 

I'm currently on the hunt for another jacket because I have the DIY bug now. 

Let me know if you guys try any of this! I'd love to see what you come up with.
