Gaining and losing baby weight is sort of like the aftermath of an earthquake. The main event may be over but things just don’t settle back into place exactly the same way they were before. You can lose all the baby weight, but your body isn’t quite like it used to be.
For example, there was a time when I could get away with the braless look. Um…no mas, my friends, no mas. TMI? Sorry. Just keepin’ it all the way real.
And there was a time when all my jeans were low-rise. That ship has sailed. These days I like my jeans with a little more material in the waistline…a slightly higher rise…but not so high that I look like I’m having a 1980’s mom-jeans moment.
The mid-rise jeans from Old Navy are perfect. They smooth out any wobbly bits and ensure that when I bend over to pick up the baby, no one can see what color undies I chose to wear. It’s a win-win for everyone.
Now, just because the rise is a little higher, does not mean I have any plans on sacrificing style. Afterall, I’m not a regular mom. I’m a cool mom. (500 lovebucks to anyone who knows that reference). I’ve taken my denim to the highest heights of stylish and crafty with a really simple DIY that you are going to flip over!
Recently, I was on television wearing a pair of splattered paint jeans. I got a lot of questions about them from people wanting to buy a pair. Well – I’m gonna do you one better. I’m gonna show you how to MAKE a pair. The Old Navy jeans are so affordable that you really don’t have to think twice about getting creative with them.
To make your own pair of DIY Splatter Paint Jeans, you’ll need:
- A pair of Old Navy jean – I used the Mid Rise Boyfriend Jean
- Acrylic Craft Paint
- Fabric Medium
- Paint Brushes
- Paper Bowls
- Plastic Spoons
- A Large Tarp to protect your work surface
A FEW TIPS:
- Have fun! There is no wrong way to do this. Play with brushstrokes, dripping and splattering the paint
- Grab a couple pairs of jeans! They are really affordable so it’s nice to have an extra pair on hand in case you want to try a different technique
- Once you’re done painting your jeans, allow the paint to dry completely overnight, then throw them into the dryer to set the paint. Then you can wash and dry them like regular jeans.
- Prepare yourself for the compliments! I literally wore these jeans for a week straight after making them! Everywhere I went, people asked where I got them. It was so fun to be able to say “I made them!” I styled my jeans with a tank and a chambray shirt…all from Old Navy.

The part about Old Navy’s mid-rise jeans caught my attention first. They cover all the wobbly bits like magic! I imagine myself being super crafty while making those splatter paint jeans and having a blast. Damask Love and Alien Name Generator somehow share this creative energy, don’t you think? Just a casual thought while scrolling on my phone at the coffee shop.
I love how the author mentions getting tons of compliments on the splattered paint jeans. It’s so relatable when she talks about not having to sacrifice style even though she switched to mid-rise jeans.

The mention of wearing splatter paint jeans on TV caught my eye. I often find myself checking out cool fashion DIYs during a coffee break, and this one is too creative not to try. Plus, Old Navy seems to have versatile pieces, much like the Black Lace Corset offers elegance in every wardrobe.
