oh wow, these are great tips! I should actually have included them - I think I will, if you don't mind.
I do actually abide by all of those rules - especially the sales - I am a SALES WHORE! and vintage is my thang too - you know that 😅
You paint your clothes? Do you mean dye? By default - I mainly wear black. It stems from being an ex gothy punk rocker, and now it's just easier, black always matches black. xx
Thank you for your fantastiese comment - you always have the best and most thoughtful things to say 💜
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
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 :-)
