DIY Ombre Dress!


Hola!
After surfing the net for the perfect for New Year's Eve, on a budget, (I had blown all my saving on shoes), I came across this DIY on stylehaul, and I went for it!
Got that white out of style dress lying around in your closet, collecting dust? Ombre dress, here I come!

What you will need
1 packet of Dye
1 wooden spoon
Pair of Gloves- turns out your hands...ombreable!
A white dress, that your willing to ombre!
Any unwanted tea towel
And while, you're at it you might as well where any clothes that you don't mind if they get splashed.

Steps
1. To avoid ombred hands, put on a pair of gloves
2. Pour dye in one bucket of water and mix well.
3. Twist your dress in a wringing motion.
4. Place the bottom of the dress in the dye and leave it for 45 minutes.
5. Push the dress in further so that the middle section is in the dye.
6.Dye the middle for 15 minutes.
7. Put the rest of the dress in dye and dye for literally one second- dip in, take out.
8. Wring out the dress with the help of a unwanted tea towel
9. Pop it into the other bucket with water and rinse it.
10. Toss it into the washing machine, and rinse out on a cold wash- dyed clothes do not go well with others, so make sure it's the only thing in the washing machine.
 And you're done!
