DIY-Project: Acid Wash

Hey guys,
last summer I felt in love with bleaching my jeans. but I also created this shirt. it is a lot of fun! you should try it!                                                                 

                                                          

Step 1: Just buy a cheap shirt (the fun thing is that you never know for sure how the color will look like after bleaching it), bleach stuff, a cord (Kordel),an empty spray bottle,sponge,old gloves(alte Handschuhe); Step 2: make sure that you wear old clothes and your bath tub is resistent against bleach. And better also put a shawl aorund your mouth because it is not healthy. Step 3: Fill the spray bottle with bleach, wear your gloves (hand protection) and put the shirt into the bath tub. Step 4: You can create different effects. the best is just try everything with an old, useless shirt for the first time. Effect of the spray bottle: a lot of small dots. it is good for a basicEffect of the sponge: Put some of the bleach on the sponge and levigate it in some directions. This looks greatEffect of the cord: Take a part of the shirt and make a knot. then take the bottle of bleach and let just a bit of the stuff run over it. wait a few mintues and than open the knort. you will see beautiful circles. For each of the effects you have to wait a few minutes. you can see how the color will change and decide on your own when you want to put it in the washing maschine. I hope this was helpul! just ask if there are still some questions. Oh and I also created a shorts. I will post it for you!

Two of my friends love Mac. I'm sure they could open an own beauty store just with their Mac products:) I have to mention that I was more reluctant to buy the products with regard to the premium price. But last week I got a Mac nail polish as a present  and what happened? Well, the Mac dependency finally captured me. This nail polish looks so awesome ( color: darkgreen; name: Beyond jealous), especially with my new ring! I will make another picture of the ring.

             

Since a few months I'm fascinated by these new creations of hand jewellery. Several swedish fashion bloggers posted pictures and showed how to combine it. By now there are some online providers who offer  these  ornaments. Just one example: Modekungen. So what do you think? Trend alert or flop?
