I'm having fun dying some things. I've never used these before, but the colors are necessary to me for some reason now and I found the only way I can have them to wear is through dying some pieces.
I previously mentioned how I just dyed a beach crochet wrap that I made here and you can see how the picture shows a true AquaMarine color. I also dyed a crochet camisole but left it in for less time for a lighter shade, but it is the same shade.
I wanted a sea green to go with the Aqua as I don't like to appear monochromatic in my colors, and a Sea Green with the Aqua would look lovely especially on the beach, and it is the beach whose colors are inspiring me, I have to say....colors where you always see the most amazing blues and greens in the same oceans......
pura Aqua!
The effects of the greens with the blues is magical oui? :D
I took the previously blue camisole shown here
and added a capful of yellow to the Aqua dye I still had in a bucket. I save it in case I want to color anything else, and I knew I wanted to play with a sea green. And here is the result. I didn't even leave it in for a minute.....it would have taken on more density in color and been deeper and I wanted a nice light Sea Foam green. I have it next to the beach wrap to show the color comparison. Luv it !
Getting close to beautiful Oceania Mama!
