RE: 🌟DEAR STEEM DIARY - FAST FASHION and CONSCIENTIOUS SPENDING 🌟

Ah yes, see?! You said I spoke perfect English once but here's proof you were wrong :P It's dye indeed :-)

I can buy these packages with cotton dye, put them in the washing machine with some salt, and add one or two items of clothing depending on how saturated I want them to be :-) After that I just wash the painted clothes to get the dye to settle even more, and after that one more wash to clean the washing machine ;-) I love black too and wear it a lot (outfit of today: black paints, black and white polka dot shirt :D), but earth tones are my other love ;-)

And you're fantastisch yourself! :D

Sort:  

hehe well near perfect English - I think that was the first time I didn't know what you meant!

I have always wanted to dye things, but we don't have a washing machine, and even though Mork is Goth inside, I don't think he would like a black bath 😆

We've had a purple bath from the toner I put in my hair to keep it blonde, and I think it might be the actual bane of his existence 😂

Hahahaha - awesome, a black bath sounds epic.

There's two varieties of the paint: one for the washing machine and one for just putting in a bucket and soak it for 2 hours :-)

I'm gonna try it. I have this pair of canvas shoes that are faded. I can dye them. Woop Woop Dark Bath time.

(i'll use a bucket)

Just remember: all natural fibers will ‘take’ but of there’s for examply polyester stitches they won’t take the colour. Can work out great or not so great :D I guess in shoes they would use polyester stitching, that’s why I’m saying :-)
