First of All,
I just have to say to Everyone,  Thank You Sooooo much. !!
The last 3 days I have been swamped
with wonderful responses to my 5 minute draped vest post, from last Tuesday.
If you have left me a comment and need a response,
please leave me your  email. I will get back to you ASAP!
I truly appreciate your  support and and kind words.
I hope to do many more videos in the future, starting today:)
I added a Video to this post on how I made these, I hope it helps.
It has been a Crazy last 3 days, but I am enjoying every second, of everyday.
Except for  the cleaning house bit.
Welcome Everyone,  to Re-Style #55


Re-Style for this week,
Gold Jeans.
Why?  Because I wanted some!!
Video will be included below.

My Shoes are a Re-Style as well HERE


Tutorial
Things you need
  1. Dark jeans
  2. Gold Paint I used Acrylic, Metallic gold ( Folk art)
  3. Paint Brush
  4. Water
  5. Plate
  6. Paper Towels


Paint your jeans, starting at the top and working your way down.
Use a little water if you need to blend in your paint.
If you paint the middle of the leg, it gives the illusion of a thinner leg.
Same with the back paint just under the bum. and the top of your pockets.

If you want to go full on gold
Paint the whole jean, leaving just little dark jean showing through.
I think that would look amazing as well..
Let dry, at least overnight.


5 minute Video,
to show you how I did mine.
HERE










Wait 72 hours before you Wash in cold water and hang to dry.
After I made these gold jeans  I decided that I wanted more Gold on them.
I didn't want to add  any more Acrylic paint so I used some Tulip Soft Metallic Paint in Gold, This Tulip fabric paint  works Fantastic on all things Fabric.  Tulip Paint that would work just as great alone without the acrylic paint.
These jeans are  Completely washable in cold water and hang dry,
 I would not dry them.


 I Re-Styled these gold jeans
HERE 
I added metallic gold fabric paint, on top of what I had already had done.
Have a fantastic Monday Night!!
Lots of <3 to you all,
Anne

  2. Great DIY, I love the metallic sheen of these jeans and agree that dark denim works best. Glad you've been getting so much support - you deserve it!
