Slowly but surely I've been adding to my pile of things that 'used to be white'. The problem with white stuff is that it never stays white! So, in the spirit of recycling I am going to attempt to dye these baby's tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Oooh I can't wait to see how they come up! Although I do love a bit of crisp white. I actually found a vintage crocheted cushion cover I bought years ago that had been in storage in a box I'd forgotten about. It had gone cream and looked as if someone had smoked all over it for years - yuk! Anyway, I have only recently napisan-ed it and now it looks great so we'll see how long it stays that way.
Don't you just hate that! There have been times in my life when I thought that I was just a slovenly housekeeper but maybe its just a natural (and annoying) ageing process (of the white things, not me).
Good luck! I look forward to seeing how they turn out, it;s amazing what a bit of dye can do!! :)

ReplyDeleteHow did you go? I've been thinking about dying such things too.
