New Jeans

I was blog hopping last week and saw a post about an old pair of jeans

made new again with a $2 box of navy blue dye.

I decided to give it a try.

I have two pairs of these jeans and one of them was getting pretty worn.

Not wanting to go too crazy, I bought a bottle of "denim blue" dye and went to work.

Here's the before picture...

And the after...

My "new" jeans look just like the old ones.

The moral of this story is that denim blue dye is to make white look kinda like denim

since all that really turned blue was the frayed edges of the pockets and pant legs.

Maybe I'll try it with the navy blue dye next time!
