I took a pair of jeans that I really don't wear anymore and bleached them several times. I forgot to take a picture of the bleached jeans. They were white with marbled light jean color. I figured that it was good enough.
I used RIT kelly green in my washing machine to dye the jeans (first time to use my machine for dying. To my surprise it didn't discolor the inside). The jeans were not a kelly green but more of a mint color.
I cut the pant legs off to desired length and hemmed. I have got to say that these are really comfortable shorts! There are faded areas where I didn't bleach the jeans fully white, but that doesn't bother me. Now to figure out what to do with the leftover fabric from the pant legs ; )
