dying for the weekend

this weekend was tiring, to say the least. i think i'm still trying to get myself back in order. i didn't get a lot done blog and shop-wise, but i did manage to dye my sweater! i never really wore this thrifted ralph lauren sweater much when it was white -- too summer-y, and i guess white is not really my colour. now that it's grey, i'm wearing it ALL OF THE TIME. well, since friday. what do you think? i love wearing grey...it's so cozy. i didn't have a big enough pot for the stove top, and i don't have a washer of my own, so i was forced to use a mop bucket full of boiling water to dye this shirt. totally worth it. :) i felt like i was on a roll and so i threw a few things in the bucket (everything that i own that is white aka 3 things) but this one turned out the best. it really depends on the material you're using. i think i may have found a new love, and i'm very tempted to thrift more white things and experiment with dying fabrics. look at me go. happy wednesday, friends.
