DIY Upcycled Jean Coasters

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Brit & Co. Cocktail Napkins are Hip and Stylish

— July 21, 2012 — Art & Design
These Brit & Co. Cocktail Napkins are a great way to repurpose old jeans into stylish coasters for your abode.

All that is needed to make these is some denim, painters tape, a sewing machine, hydrogen peroxide, bleach and some stamps or lace to make the patterns. Simply cut out denim squares, and then using an object of your choice, such as a stamp, spray some bleach on it, and then press it against the denim to form a print. Once it's imprinted, spray hydrogen peroxide over the design to seal. Finish off your napkins by sewing thread around the border. Lastly, throw them in the washing machine and let them dry.

This is an easy and effective method of adding some hip style to your home.
