Pastel DIY test!

Last night when I had changed into my nightgown I got the idea that I had to try my fabric dye that I bought like four years ago. I had seen rainbow coloured shorts on ebay and my mom (or boyfriend? don't remember) said "you can do those yourself!" and I went and bought white jeans at a thrift store, and four colours at a art supply store. And I was super excited, but I thought I'd try the shorts while they were white, which was stupid/smart because then I didn't want to dye them anymore. I thought I'd buy another pair, but I didn't and then the whole trend broke loose and I wasn't very interested in rainbow shorts anymore. ANYWAY, those colours have been standing around for a while now and last night I wanted to try them! I found this sweater that I had decided to sell or donate, but it became my test subject instead, hehehehehe. So, after running around in my nightgown splashing colour everywhere, I left the sweater to dry over the night. In the morning it was pretty!! But... smelled weird because it had been lying on my dirty bathroom floor :D I fixated the colour with my iron, and then washed it, BUT it got really pale! :(( Almost all the colour went out, so tonight I'm re-doing it with more colour, and tomorrow I'll iron it longer and warmer I think. 

Anyway I'm really happy doing this, it's so much fun! I got to find more white clothes that I can play with. Next I have a pair of white jeans that I never wear, but I can't figure out what to do with them... But I'll do something all right. YOU'LL SEE!

BEFORE AND AFTER

Like we finally saw the colors of the world

Location / Occasion
The weather is currently awesome where I live. It's sunny but not crazy killer hot, and the evenings are the best! Here I am again in my friends garden, feeling cozy! We recently had a "cookie/cake-night" (same word in Swedish -> Kakkväll) at her place (in the garden ofc!) with lots of pillows and friends and lots and lots of sweet stuff to eat! <3


Outfit
I found this sweater at my favourite second hand in Sweden/Stockholm (Myrorna in Ropsten) and it's not really my style, but when I saw it I just melted, because, I mean, LOOK AT IT! :D I call it my sweater that cures diseases. It's crazy comfortable too <3
And the converse, well, I found them in my firends trash and was like why are you throwing these away? What size are they? Aaaand after that they are mine. I've worn them for like three summers so I guess they had more to give!
