  Step 1

  Get a pair of jean shorts.

  Step 2

  Mine were a kinda long and out-dated so I cut them to be a bit shorter and folded and sewed the raw edges.

  Step 3

  Take a pen or writing utensil of some form and draw out the pattern you want. I chose some large and small roses with petals and I drew out the basic shapes with the pen on my jeans.

  Here's the front:

  Step 4

  And the back:

• Step 5

  Now choose the colors and start painting using the pen outline as a guide..

• Step 6

  Make sure you paint one side at a time and let that side dry completely before proceeding to the other side!

  After the paint was dry I went back over some edges to get a sharp look.

  Let the paint dry

  Step 7

  And you're finished!

What brand of paint did you use? I tried using just (DecoArt/craft) acrylic paints on cloth, but they crack/peel off when washed. If I mix in fabric medium the paint stays in/on he fabric.

Did you add 'fabric medium' to the acrylic paint?

I did not add anything to the acrylic paint. Though I have worn, washed, and dried these shorts numerous times and they don't show any signs of the paint fading or peeling!
