Your boldness absolutely paid off. I would be too much of a punk to try to pull that off. It looks Fabulous!

It came out great. I think I like the two tone better then all the dark pink! You couldn't have made it look like this if you tried!!!!!!!

Great job!

Same here - I love the way it looks!! Great job!

wow girls thanks so much! it was super easy.. heres what i used as a guide..

directions

i used the directions on the box of the Rit dye that you can buy at any craft store.

a few tips... MAKE SURE YOU WEAR GLOVE...like the rubber ones you wear to wash dishes that go to your elbow. i found i avoided tie-dying doing the following things..
-while it was in the wash cycle going in and pulling it out to unwind it. (yes while the whole washer was filled with hot pink dye. hence the need for gloves to your elbows)
-after the wash cycle right before it goes through the rinse pull it out and unwind again.

after the machine completes the whole thing final spin and all.. take it out unwind and then put it back in and wash it with light detergent like woollight. this gets out all the excess dye thats left so it wont run on the day of your wedding. i did one wash.

i let it hang dry. and today i will most likely wash it again just to be safe.

Any questions please just send me a FM
