Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye

Day 201: DIY Shoulder Pad Dryer Sheets
Day 199: Bamboo Dress

When I found today’s dress, I hated the creepy fleshy color of it!  🙁

Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 2
Skin-colored! Ewwww....:/

I immediately went to my dye stash and found this little dye packet that had somehow escaped from its box!

Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 3
What color are you?!?!?!!!!!

I had NO IDEA what color this little guy might be!  I decided to chance it, and began preparing my mystery dye…

Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 4
And the color of the day is ORANGE!!!!

I’ll be honest…I was hoping for something a good deal different from the original color, and this orange hue really wasn’t it.  :/  I went with it anyways!

After the dye bath, I chopped a big chunk off from the bottom.

Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 5
Chopped!

I cut a smaller piece from that bottom scrap to wrap around my waist.  Now I have a terrific jersey tunic/dress!   The color is subtly different from the original…a bit more mustardy, don’t you think?

Now I match my walls! 🙂

It’s just the thing for a bad movie night with a few of my favorite fellas!  🙂

Hi Tony! 🙂

And check this out!  A couple of good friends made us a massive pan of Tex Mex dip…with about a bazillion cheeses in it!  The cheese kind of matches my new tunic…just sayin’!  🙂

Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 8
Mmmmmm! Dip! 🙂
Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 9

And what was our feature film for the evening, you ask?

Day 200: Magical Mystery Dye 10
...The Legend Continues!

By the way, if any of you have a copy of Boggy Creek I, or the original Boggy Creek II (Yes, this Boggy Creek II is actually Boggy Creek III.  They just decided to call it Boggy Creek II…very complicated, I know!) please let me know!  🙂

Cheers!  🙂
