## How to Stencil a Custom Design on Jeans with Bleach

Stenciling is a fun way to add your personal touch to your denim. With bleach, you can create a variety of effects, from subtle bleaching to bold, distressed looks.

You will need:

- jeans

- bleach

- a stencil (you can make your own stencil or purchase one from a craft store)

- a paintbrush

- gloves

- a well-ventilated work area

Instructions:

1. Prepare your workspace.

2. Put on your gloves.

3. Place the stencil on the jeans where you want the design to appear.

4. Use a stencil brush to apply the bleach to the stencil. Be careful not to apply too much bleach, or the design will bleed.

5. Let the bleach sit for the amount of time specified on the bleach bottle.

6. Rinse the jeans thoroughly with water.

7. Dry the jeans.

8. Enjoy your new custom jeans!

Here are a few tips for stenciling with bleach:

- Test the bleach on a scrap piece of fabric to make sure it doesn't damage the material.

- Use a brush with soft bristles to avoid damaging the stencil.

- Be careful not to apply too much bleach, or the design will bleed.

- Work in a well-ventilated area to avoid breathing in bleach fumes.
