It seems like ombre has taken over everything lately— hair, nails, clothes, etc. But the prices for these things can be mind-blowing at times. Here are three ways to make your own ombre accessories, cheaply and easily.

1. Dip-Dying

Though this seems to be the most common method of achieving the ombre look,  it really is the easiest way. It works on almost anything — shorts, pants, hats, bags, you name it. Plus, it has great results! So cute!


2. Spray Painting

I’d never considered using a spray bottle to get the ombre look, but in this tutorial it works like a charm! Though it’s harder to do, it gives you more control on the finer details of the design, and gives the final product a more grungy look.


3. Bleaching

I am so totally in love with this method. It makes the shirt (pants, bag, whatever) look sun-bleached and worn, and sort of cozy because of that. Plus, it has the ease of the dip-dying method, without the dye! Perfect!
