motley: DIY tye dye shorts!

Hello readers, it's blog Tuesday! Today I am doing a DIY on dyed shorts! There is no wrong color, or way we can do this! All you need are a the following

-bleach jeans/shorts

-scissors/xacto knife

-fabric dye

-garbage bag

-hot water

-washer and dryer

-studs (optional)

(Check out our etsy page for a great deal on clothing studs)

In my case I acccidently left these shorts in bleach, so I figured why not dye them? I have these dye lying around! These bottled ones actually say to put it in the laundry then dye it that way, but that means I can only use one color, I figured it would still work like the regular rit dye.

So first things first you want to have a pair a jeans and cut them into shorts (if you desire) and make sure you bleach them, the dye won't take to the blue denim. For these particular shorts I had no vision I wanted shorts I wanted something fun and different.

I took old dye bottles I had laying around and put the dye and some hot water in it I did about equal parts. But I'm pretty sure whatever dye you will have the directions.

Take your shorts and lay the on the trash bag, this could get messy. I just took the purple and put it on first then the redish pink then back to the purple. Some spots I kind of missed so I took the yellow and just put it on those spots!

I think they look awesome but I wanted to give them more of something so while they were wet I gave them a few more shreds it was easier a that way and I wanted to do it nephew I put it in the laundry to give it that distressed look.
