The post where I go postal on my polkadots jeans

Found a pair of polka dot jeans at Valleygirl on sale for $20. I figured they were perfect to experiment on to make them ripped. That's right, ripped. I was stalking One Teaspoon baggies (jeans)' and saw that there was a polka dot version - but I didn't love them and they were $150! But the dilemma I'm facing is how ripped, I just started with one knee - I will see how I go lol. I think it will look cooler the more distressed it comes with wearing.
