looks cool
how did you make it?
Not that impressive but was going to throw away my beat up old light grey converse. Got some black dye and stained the laces and the plastic toe bit ect with some quick applied shoe polish shit.
>>9577980
I like it
I bleached these pants. And tapered them. Im thinking about hemming them but I like stacks.
The rectangle is what color they were before I bleached them.
>>9579090
I don't have any before the taper but this is the final look.
>>9579096
Also does anyone know how to do embroidery? I really want to learn and if you know how can you please give me a hand.
I bleached this shirt the darker blue is what it looked like before. Shame it doesn't fit how I want it too. But it's always good just to practice doing stuff.

>>9579515
I did the same thing and the rubber is a little cracked. I miss my black monotone converse though.
Had red vans that I bought a long time ago before I got into trying to dress better. Wanted to bleach them so maybe they would fit into my wardrobe better. I think they turned out pretty good.

>hey anon, why are you wearing pink shoes, arent those for girls?
>>9579096
you should hem them imo, they don't look like great stacks they just look too big.
>>9579784
It's the shoes :(
>>9580291
I might do it today just to do some diy today.
>>9580231
Fuck it. I like them way better than when they were bright red.
>>9579102
I know you can get sewing machines that do embroidery. You just upload a design to it and it goes for it. They're quite expensive though, and I'm not sure how to hand embroider. Sorry.
>>9580413
they look fine, i was just teasing you :3
>>9579102
buy an embroidery hoop at a craft store, this will keep shit tight while you're pulling the needle through. They will also have fabric with tiny squares in them for easy embroidering, you can get this or just use whatever material you have at home. You probably already have thread but if you don't already, get some with rayon or polyester.
Hand stitched because I got extremely bored once
>>9580565
is that you
>>9580570
um, why?
>>9580586
u have a really nice face but u should do somthing with ur eyebrows
>>9580603
I'm seconding this your face is a 8/10 but those eyebrows are 4/10 they're bringing you down man
>>9579096
This is the colour I've been looking for. So, I can just buy blue jeans and let them soak in bleach for awhile to get this?
patched up these jeans with purple thread
>>9580873
also this
I got some light blue jeans at Uniqlo but I want to make them really faded for some pale fits, anyone have experience with bleaching/other paling methods?
Any advice is much appreciated
Not clothes but I'm about to order some Iso E Super and Everclear and make my own Molecule 01 cologne.
>>9580878
You sew on a cross, that's it?
>>9580892
yea
spent multiple hours on this
>>9580917
dedication, did you bleach the thread first ?
>>9580934
i actually saved my armpit hair over more than 5 years
then i coloured it, made it into yarn
>>9580413
sick, would wear/10
>>9580948
Now that's some high-end cross-stitching tailoring, anon I am proud.
>>9580873
i did this to a pair of jeans and i like the look a lot. a lot less basic than just ripped jeans
is it possible to bleach black vans so they turn greyish or will they turn orange?
>>9581062
Maybe bleaching with a fuck ton of water. I had dark gray vans but I bleached them too much and they turned white.
>>9581062
canvas will turn grey when u bleach it
>>9579096
really like the stacks personally
>>9577121
it sure is.
>>9580873
what do people do to rip holes in their jeans? I've had the same couple pairs for years that I wear all the time and none of them have ever ripped, I feel like I'm missing out.
i lost like 50 pounds and have a ton of old fatty jeans
was thinking of this

>>9580413
pretty decent
>>9579232
Thats awful
Bunch of shorts I made from old pants
>>9579096
What was the bleach to water ratio?
How long did you let them sit?
>>9582190
dont cuff them, hem them, it looks mad gay on the demin especially
captcha: anaIL
>>9579515
painted over them with white acrylic paint from walmart (cost 50 cents total)
they still look like the gesso and flake in the same way
>>9582245
None, let them all naturally age and distress, then when they started to losen up towards the end over time I just made them into cut offs and cuffed them because the threading was hanging and it looks better cuffed
>>9579096
wow this is going in my inspo folder
beautiful
>>9581966
people generally just cut them themselves
alternatively: attend punk shoes and get really fucking plastered than run home
that'll do it too
>>9582297
i was also thinking about painting over them in a cream color, i think it'd look bretty gud
>>9581966
Try skateboarding.
Give it a week.
I seriously have to put pants aside that I won't skate in, because they all meet the same fate.
>>9579232
