It all began with a stack of thrifted Levi's, and from there, it evolved into an obsession with D.I.Y. floral print jeans. So what did I use? Well I took some old flower templates (the likes of which can be found at Michael's) from my days as a fashion student and went to work coloring some inexpensive white jeans with a box of Crayola fabric markers.
Tips: the higher the cotton content and the lighter the fabric, the better the results. I went with a somewhat random application using five different flower designs and four colors. For a faster application, fabric paint and brushes/sponges can be used instead of markers. I used my iron to heat set the design when finished, and I plan on dry cleaning in my dryer to prevent any color transfer.
Three episodes of Real Housewives later, I had myself some new jeans to pair with the chambray top and Dany heels that I'm living in this week.
