DIY denim vest

Do you have an old, vintage, baggy looking denim jacket lying somewhere in your wardrobe that's buried by clothes and dust and you've always wanted to wear it out but just don't have th courage to cause it's just too fugly? I had. But because i had nothing to do i decided to diy-ed it into a vest(yes, a vest) and though it's not what i had in mind, i think it looks pretty decent enough to wear it out.

Items you'll need are:
An old vintage denim jacket
Bleach
Pail filled with 1/4 ~ 1/2 full of water

First, i dumped my jacket in a pail with very little water, about 1/4 full. Then i add in bleach(i added about half a bottle). Soaked it for about 45mins to an hour. Constantly check it and turn it around. If thats the color you want, then you cn take it out earlier, Or if you want an even lighter shade, soak it more.(it just depends on yourself)

After about an hour, rinsed the bleached away and let it dry. You'll probably get this:


If what you had in mind is a jacket, then you have it. If you want a vest, cut off the sleeves.


It'll look like this.





What do you think?
