Generally, jeans are sent to a professional washing factory for distressing. Different washing methods will produce different effects, including stone washing with enzyme washing, sand washing with softener, etc.
The following is a simple way to make distressed jeans, so that you can easily DIY your own personalized jeans at home. The natural shabby feel not only does not look sloppy, but also exudes a fashionable and youthful atmosphere. Let’s try to use tired jeans to create your own hot pants. The DIY steps are really simple, let’s start making them right away~
Material preparation:
Old jeans, scissors, sandpaper, tweezers, chalk.
Production steps:
Step 1: Use sandpaper to sand where you want to make holes. This will make the holes look more like natural wear and tear. You can put a piece of cardboard inside the pants to protect the pants on the back.
Step 2: Use a pencil to mark the areas you want to damage, and draw two lines 1 inch apart. Pay attention to the distance and length of the changing lines to make them look more natural.
Step 3: Now use scissors to cut the area where you just drew the line. Be careful not to cut the lower part of the jeans, nor the pockets.
Step 4: Use tweezers to pull out the threads from the cut slit. Don’t pull out all the threads, but leave some in the middle. Dark blue jeans will be easier to make.
Step 5: Continue the previous step of thread drawing until you are satisfied with the effect. Holding the thread with your fingers makes it easier to pull it out, and it also ensures an even result.
Step 6: After you have finished pulling out the thread, trim the excess thread, then shake off the remaining thread on the pants, and finally run them through water again, and you are ready to wear them!
