A bit ago, I posted this. 4 months later and I'm finally getting around to dyeing my Alice dress. (I have the tights and the Fluevog Inge shoes. Yes, the shoes were expeeeeeensive.) We're attempting to use this dye. I should be dyeing it this afternoon, so I'll add pictures of the dye process in this post later ( Read more... )

I got the same fabric and tried using the same dye for my dress! xD I've been meaning to post my costume progress here. That particular dye didn't take very well for me, and ended up very light, but I also didn't have the proper amount of salt that the directions called for. I tried a second time around with Tulip Royal Blue (and the right amount of salt!) and it took very well after only having it in the dye for about 5 minutes. I wish you luck in your dyeing adventures :)

You ought to post your costume progress!

I tend to use more salt, usually. Helps with absorption.

Yeah, I didn't realize we had almost no salt until I was ready to put it in. :( Bad planning on my part. But at least it turned out well in the end.
