DIY Stenciled Shorts

  I think these shorts are fashionable anytime. You can use whatever stencil and color you want on the shorts! Or make stripes with tape!
Difficulty: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
You will need:
  • stencil (or you could make your own from cardboard) 
  • painter's blue tape 
  • fabric paints 
  • cardboard
  • old jeans or shorts (that fit you in the waist and hips)  
  • foam paintbrush or any large paintbrush 

Cut your jeans to the desired length plus 1 inch.
Grab a cool stencil.
Tape your stencil onto the shorts and insert cardboard in between the layers of denim.
Paint inside the stencil, peel the stencil off, and wipe it clean.
Repeat previous steps all over the denim.
Pretty Pretty!
Don't like stars? Try polka dots, hearts, triangles, flowers or stripes with blue tape.
