Directions Semi Permanent Hair Colour, Denim Blue, 0.1 kg

Product Information

You will need three seam lengths of about 30cm each to make the DIY denim bracelet. These can all be from the same pair of jeans. But I think this looks better if you use seams from different pairs of jeans. It’s nice to use denim seams that are different shades of indigo. Measuring the wrist Cover work area with plastic table cover and have paper towels handy to protect against any possible spills.

Guess what? I managed to marry the two with this gorgeous recycled jean planter. To make this planter unique and to show off the different shades of indigo in denim, I used just the seams and hems of jeans for this upcycle. This effortless denim upcycle requires only a tiny amount of hand sewing. If you prefer no-sew jeans projects, the DIY jeans bracelet can be made with glue instead. Body Variations discover how your body variations can best be dressed. From a large or small bust to full arms or calves. Next, measure the width of your wrist with a tape measure and take 2cm off this measurement. My wrist was 18cm wide but minus the 2cm this was 16cm. This is the length the braided seams need to be for the DIY denim bracelet.To clean the washing machine: Wipe around the inside of the lid and pour a little bleach through the internal dispenser (if there is one) as dyes can get into these areas. Then, fill washer to the highest water level there is and select the hottest water temperature setting. Add detergent with 2 cups 470 mL of chlorine bleach and run a full wash cycle with 3 old towels. To enhance the color and reduce color bleeding, use Rit ColorStay Dye Fixative immediately after dyeing and before washing, following these instructions.

Details of other color codes including equivalent web safe and HTML & CSS colors are given in the table below. Also listed are the closest Pantone® (PMS) and RAL colors. Fill a stainless steel pot with enough water for the fabric to move freely. We recommend using 3 gallons 11.5 L of water for every pound 1/2 kilogram of fabric. I love to upcycle my old jeans into fun crafts for my home. But occasionally, I also love repurposing them into new things to wear, like this DIY denim bracelet and the denim bow ties I made a couple of weeks ago.

Denim Blue Polka Dots Pattern

Coloured denim is a fun fashion trend, but buy cheaply as it won’t be the longest-lasting trend. The brighter the colour of the jeans the more you will find wearing a top in a neutral colour works best, so your outfit is not too overwhelming. Choose a colour that suits your colouring too – so not too bright if you suit a more muted or smoky palette. How to Change the Colour of Your Jeans I got the idea for this cool denim bracelet when making denim coasters from old jeans seams. Weaving seams made the coasters. I liked the pattern the seams made. I thought it would look good as a bracelet. To enhance the color and reduce color bleeding, use Rit ColorStay Dye Fixative immediately after dyeing and before washing, following these instructions. If you are looking for one fun temporary hair dyeing experience then why not try theLa Riche Directions Colour Hair Dye in Denim Blue. Test color by dipping a paper towel into the dyebath. If color is too light, add more dye. If color is too dark, add more water.

When desired color is achieved, remove from dye bath. Fabric will look darker when wet and will dry lighter. Squeeze out excess dye. Denim Blue is from the RAL Design list where it is included with the number 240 40 20. RAL is a popular color matching system used in several European countries like Germany, Italy, France and the United Kingdom. RAL Design, which has colors for interiors, is different from the RAL Classic list. Dark non-distressed denim is considered the dressiest shade of jeans. These indigo blues tend to be cooler sorts of bluesand they fit better with cooler palettes.

Stir slowly and continuously. The first 10 minutes are the most critical. Stirring helps to ensure an even color with no splotches. Next, plait the three seams together until they reached the measured bracelet length. Plait by taking the left outside seam and passing it over the middle seam. Then take the right outside seam and pass that over the new middle seam. Carry on repeating this process until you get the plait of the required length.
