Updating the Flannel

Been digging the bleached flannel fashion so decided to create my own shirt. This morning grabbed an old flannel shirt, rubber banded the bottom, and proceeded to bleach.

Of course nothing goes as planned.  I had filled up a bucket with hot water and bleach, grabbed the shirt, turned back and saw the bleach water leaking from the bucket.  Arggg!!!

Quickly moved the leaky bucket to the sink and cleaned up the dripping bleach mess on the counter.  Then carefully placed rubber banded shirt into the solution.

Per Pinterest, my crafting Bible, it sounded like it would need to soak for quite some time. Yeah not. Took maybe 10 minutes to lighten up that flannel. Rinsed, washed, then threw in the dryer.

I think it turned out pretty good!
