How to make holes on your jeans with your own hands? There are two ways!

The relevance of torn jeans has not faded for several years. For example, women's jeans-2011 were simply strewn with small holes and large abrasions, this trend of fashionable "shabby" has survived to this day. The popularity of this kind of clothes can not explain either the designers or the buyers. Perhaps the whole point is that this fashionable thing with tattered and worn trousers gives the appearance of a person not only a mischievous appearance, but also makes it visually younger. Many people are wondering how to make holes on their jeans with their own hands.

Of course, no one cancels the option of buying a finished item, but you also want to save money, and look beautiful. Knowing how to make holes on your jeans with your own hands, you can create a truly stylish thing.

There are two ways to hand-maid:

1. Traditional.
2. Innovative.

The traditional way of making holes on jeans with your own hands is simple enough. It consists in using pumice or sandpaper during work. Of course, such holes will look very neat, but you will have to spend a lot of time. Therefore, the second method is more relevant.

The innovative way involves five steps in the work:

1. Before you make holes on your jeans with your own hands, you should determine where the white threads of denim are. The secret lies in the fact that they are located parallel to the floor and perpendicular to the pant leg.
2. The size and shape of the future hole should be noted with the help of chalk (it is possible to replace it with soap).
3. On the specified marking several cuts are made so that their lines coincide with white threads.
4. Manicure scissors (tweezers, clerical knife) - the most important tool in the work. The selected tool must be very carefully pulled out the white thread from the notch. As soon as several such threads are pulled out, the dark threads of the fabric will begin to look through.
5. It is from the dark threads that you need to get rid of to get fashionable pants.

You can realize any form of a hole in life: from the cross to the heart. Ragged jeans, photos of which can be seen in any fashion magazine, can be decorated in a very creative way and look very original. To make the holes on the trousers look as neat as possible, you need to fix all the stitches from the wrong side to ensure that the form is not lost during the wear. To get the best result around the future hole, you can make the abrasion, which will become an actual attribute of jeans. It is made using pumice stone or sandpaper. Pumice is suitable for giving a slightly worn appearance, but sandpaper will create real, fashionable scrapes. For a more accurate abrasion, you need to choose a sandpaper with small granules.

Before starting work in the leg where it is planned to do abrasion, it is necessary to put a solid object, for example a board (plywood). This is done so that the back of the leg retains its appearance. When rubbing, a lot of guns are formed, which can easily settle on furniture and carpet, so it is necessary to do this procedure in an empty room or in a corridor. Before you start, you should moisten the jeans, then rub the leg with the selected tool. Loss and creation of a hole can be combined, since pumice and sandpaper can be "rubbed" the leg to the hole. After work, jeans must be washed, after which the fashion accessory is ready for release.
