Experimental Bleaching*

A friend of mine had a pair of blue cotton jeans that she didn't ever wear because of a few small stains. After she had seen some of my bleaching samples from a few weeks ago she wondered if I wanted to try bleaching them! I was so nervous! There was no way to test and see what would happen. I had no idea what to expect but both Shelby and I are quite happy with the results!

What do you think!?

This is the pants resisted (pole wrapped)  before I put them into the bleach bath.

Adding beach to the back. ( Notice how the thread on the pockets is not a natural fiber so it doesn't bleach! )


Water bath to remove the vinegar.

The Front.

The Back.

They look so great on!!!

She seems quite happy with them!!! Yay!!
