Hope you guys try these ideas at home but don't forget bleach can be somewhat dangerous and can put holes through clothing. Make sure when you fill up your bucket of bleach, half of it is water.

Enjoy and be safe! xoxo

Fruit Christmas Ornaments 

Oranges: Cut oranges crosswise into 3/4-inch slices.Lay on a baking sheet or aluminum foil in the oven set at the lowest temperature (around 150 degrees F). Leave them to bake for about four hours, then flip them over, checking them every hour until they seem almost dry with some moisture left so they still have an orange color Create a tiny hole in the top of each slice with a small knife, and string twine through each to hang on your tree.

Apples: When picking make sure they are small and not too heavy to hang. To hang: Take a piece of floral wire long enough to poke about one third of the way through the apple and leave enough wire to hook at the top to hang on your tree

vintage bleached shorts

Today i'm going to show you how to make vintage bleached cut shorts. These usually go for a lot at the stores or online but they are easy to make and way cheaper.

First, I went to the salvation army but you can go to just about any thrift store and get a pair of old jeans, high wasted or not whatever you prefer.

Then, cutting the jeans can take a lot of time and patience especially when it comes to making it even on both sides. once you get them to the length you want them you can distress the ends with a scissor or just pull it apart with your hands.

Next, fill up a bucket outside half with bleach and half with water. make sure you are wearing gloves since bleach stains.

Then, put the shorts in the bucket, clipping them so only the bottom half is in the bleach.  Let it sit in the bleach for a couple of hour.

After, take them out and let them air dry, then wash them and dry them again and they are ready to wear!

Make your own pair of black slasher jeans- idea from Sabo Skirt

Hey all!

So over the summer I did a bit of online shopping and I was looking on one site in particular, Sabo Skirt. (https://saboskirt.com/) I found the coolest black slasher jeans shown below.

These run for $48 on Sabo Skirt so I decided to cut my own pair since I had a bunch of old black jeans lying around.

You don't need much at all, just scissors to cut and you're all set.

All you have to do is pull the jeans nice and tight where you want your slits to be and cut,. Let the freedom be yours to cut as many slits as you want and however big you want them to be.

Make it your own: I sowed bandana fabric on the first slit on each side to give them a different look and make them my own.

Look how they turned out!

They are super easy and fun to do. These distressed jeans gives every girl a rad edgy look.

Style them with: a flowy tunic and platform boots or heels  for a cute look perfect for going out at night with friends or style them with a big sweater and moccasins or boots for a comfy stay at home look. 

Hope you all like the idea and I encourage all of you to try making a pair for yourself!
