Purple Ombre Dye

I have been on a real kick with dyeing white clothes lately.

I had this beautiful white lace dress, which was pretty on it’s own but white really isn’t my color.DSCN1328

The hardest part is after the dyeing process…You have to rinse the garment in cold water until the water runs clear. This is why I prefer the machine dyeing method, if at all possible. I have little patience for rinsing until the water is clear. But I got through it….finally.
