How To: Make bleached skinny jeans from old ones

ThreadBanger demonstrates how to make recycled bleached skinny jeans. First, put on the jeans and if they are too big, pinch them at the back and mark them with tailor's chalk. Fold under the jeans at the bottom and mark the desired length with the chalk. Open up the seam of both pant legs with a seam ripper. Seam rip the back part of the jeans and the top band. Cut along the chalked lines. Redraw the seam and pin the pants. Sew along the chalk lines. Use pinking shears to cut away the excess fabric. Cover your work surface with a plastic liner and add bleach to a spray bottle. Cover your hands with plastic gloves. Then, bunch and spray your jeans with the bleach. Once you have your desired look, wash your jeans well. Your jeans are now ready to be enjoyed.
