Step 1
You will need a pair of your favorite jeans, regular bleach, couple paint brushes, ceramic bowl, rubber glovers and an animal pattern for reference.
Step 2
Put the gloves on, add some bleach into the bowl and start painting the pattern onto the jeans. If you're worried you're not skillful enough to draw the animal print try first to paint with water.
Step 3
Fill the gabs for better optic. Don't be surprised if your paint brush starts to dissolve itself after a while. Bleach has that effect on plastic.
Step 4
Wait for about 20 min. If you want to have stronger bleach effect wait longer.
Step 5
Now wash your jeans without detergent, let them dry and you're finished.
Step 6
Super easy.
