sometimes, DIY

[seichan]

I was very close to buying a new sundress for an upcoming social thing when I noticed that it looked almost like the white sundress I got last year. So...did a little DIY googling and bought the recommended dye for $3 and now have a cute semi-new dress. Still want to change the hem and create straps, but that might be beyond my skills. (bumpybear, I dyed it a terracotta color in case you were curious.) Don't worry. This ain't a craft blog yet..haha.


Seirei no Moribito 10! Chagum learns about gambling and is unsurprisingly good at it. The plot has been fairly easy-going these past episodes which means there should be a conflict soon? I hope.

Also watched 2 unexpectedly depressing movies this weekend..guh. The main character died in both movies and even though coincidentally, they both got reborn, that isn't my favorite kind of ending.

nice! did the thread take the dye, and does the zipper show? what's this event you're going to?

i'd originally thought about dying those dresses blue :D but the other 2 were afraid it'd go wrong.

the zipper which didn't dye doesn't show..but the little metal pull-part does.

30 minutes in the dye seems to dye it evenly and a good color.

i just did one last weekend, but my next one is in september i think. long holidays tend to be popular, so i guess 7/7 is close enough to the 4th of july?
