How-To: Perfectly Distressed Jeans

Give your jeans that coveted lived-in look—sans the years it usually takes to get them there—with this perfectly distressed jeans tutorial from Liz at Say Yes to Hoboken!

Yesterday I talked a bit about the latest trend of distressed jeans which I’m loving! I experimented with a few techniques this weekend to distress your own pair (since it seems absolutely ridiculous to pay for a new pair of distressed jeans) and made some interesting discoveries about how to distress and how to prevent the little knee hole from becoming a big saggy, baggy one.

This tutorial would be perfect for refashioning a thrift store find or transforming an otherwise lovely pair of jeans with an unsightly hole. Head on over to Say Yes to Hoboken to check out all of Liz’s denim distressing techniques!
