This fashion DIY project is inspired by Blake Lively’s photo on social media showing off her stylish hand-painted cherry blossom boyfriend jeans bought from Preserve for 495$. These are one of the cutest boyfriend jeans we have ever seen and according to Blake, they fit nicely even after having a baby. However, you can always DIY this project if you find these jeans a little bit pricey.(1) Fashion DIY Transform Your Old Jeans Into Cute Cherry Blossom Boyfriend Jeans-fashioncorner

We recommend to use and an old pair of jeans or visit a thrift store to buy a cheap one. Keep in mind that vintage denim will look amazing with splattered paint all over it.

Materials:

  • Old boyfriend jeans
  • White acrylic paint for splattering
  • Red and white fabric paint for making pink for the flowers
  • Purple fabric paint for the center of the flowers
  • Black fabric paint for the stems

Tools:

  • Mixing tray
  • 1 inch-long thin brush for splattering and brush strokes
  • 1 skinny paint brush for the stems
  • 1 paint brush with a circular flat bottom for the flower petals

Instructions:

1. Using the 1 inch-long brush spread white paint all over the front side of your jeans. Then, add some rough brush strokes randomly, wherever you see fit. You should totally get messy and have fun for this step. Don’t be afraid to get a little bit crazy, just make sure you have spread out an old sheet underneath for protection. Repeat this step on the back side of your jeans.

2. By using the black paint and the skinny paint brush, paint a tree skeleton onto the jeans. You can also do this pretty randomly, like adding around three stems on each leg or so. Don’t worry if you make a mistake because most of the stems will be covered with flowers. Fashion DIY: Transform Your Old Jeans Into Cute Cherry Blossom Boyfriend Jeans

3. Pour three different amounts of red and white fabric paint into the mixing tray and mix them all together to create different shades of pink for the flowers. By using the paint brush with a circular flat bottom add the cherry blossoms in different shades of pink. Start with the lighter shade for the base of the cherry blossoms. You can make some of the flower petals pigmented and the other ones with a small amount of color to achieve faded, multidimensional and abstract look. Then fill on the flowers with the purple color.Fashion DIY: Transform Your Old Jeans Into Cute Cherry Blossom Boyfriend Jeans Fashion DIY: Transform Your Old Jeans Into Cute Cherry Blossom Boyfriend Jeans
4. Repeat the process on the back side of the boyfriend jeans. You can add some blossoming details on your back pockets or a branch on the lower leg. We leave this decision to your imagination. Fashion DIY: Transform Your Old Jeans Into Cute Cherry Blossom Boyfriend Jeans
