Make Bleached Camo Jeans

Rinse and wash.

Let your jeans sit for about an hour to let the bleach work its magic. Rinse thoroughly with cold water. The bathtub, or outside with a garden hose are good places to do this.

Put your jeans in the washing machine and wash them in warm water, then move them to the dryer. Be sure to wash your jeans alone, or you'll end up bleaching other garments.

A good look for camo jeans is to make them look worn.
