DIY project: Marc Jacobs inspired DOTTED JEANS

Long time no speak, ha? :D I should come back with a manicure but I'm so inspired with this DIY project that I just have to post it asap. :$ More nails to come for sure, but I'm thinking to write more about everything I like at the moment... :)

So, dotted jeans. Something I wanted so bad but couldn't find a pair for myself. Marc Jacobs - too expensive. :( Zara - they're perfect but after trying them on - not really flattering on my body shape. So, I had an idea of making my own pair of dotted jeans.



More after a click. :)

All you need is on the picture below.

1. Pair of jeans (Bershka, 19,99€ on sale)
2. Paper
3. White Fabric Paint (Rayher Ljubljana, 2,79€)
4. 1,6 cm Circle Punch (Rayher Ljubljana, 3,29€)
5. White labels
6. Sponges
7. Chalk

I decided to make a polka dot pattern on A4 piece of paper. All dots are 7 cm apart but you can do it as you like it. :)



Then the drawing begin. Just make dots with chalk. When you're done, you can also place dots made from paper on jeans so you can see the final result. :i


Start painting. :D Don't forget to read the instruction of a fabric paint you're using. I just had to leave my jeans 24-48 hours to dry. 



Picture I made with my baby for instagram (I update there all the time so follow me if you don't - IvanaThinksPink). 


Let me know if you're going to try it! Are you a fan of dotted jeans? :)

Xoxo,
Ivana :k

    I'm not a big fan of dots (I'm more a "stripes" girl), but you made a cute pair of jeans here, you're really skilled also at DIY!
    BTW it's nice to read from you again!
