Today’s dress comes from Irene over at . :)
Irene swung by my house with a bag ‘o dresses, including this one. She loved wearing it until she spilled honey mustard on it. :( All the bleach in the world failed to remove the stain.
Into a nice, hot dye bath it went! :)
What you’re seeing in the above pic a combination of Rit Sunny Orange and Rit Scarlet. Yup…I did a little combo action, hoping for a nice Halloween Orange hue. I left the dress in its dye bath for an hour.
I wore my orange & black ensemble to my monthly supper club, where this week’s theme was comfort foods! Nom! :)
Cheers!
That turned out awesome!
Love what you did. Personally, I think the color is awesome. But, I love all shades of orange. Great going.
This is a great way to give new life to clothes. What kind of dye did you use and where will I be able to find it?
I used Rit dye. You can find it just about anywhere…even at grocery stores! You can also find a better selection at craft stores. :)
LOOKS AWESOME! So much better than with that darn stain. The funny thing is, that I only wore it 1 time, and was eating something w/ honey mustard and thought…oh no! I’m wearing white, and PLOP!…Thanks for revitalizing that dress!
