Accessorising and dying lace

Aug 12, 2014 14:11

Hi Guys,

I'm currently searching for the perfect accessories for a white and black sweet Lolita coord.

I'd like to inject some colour and have found the perfect tights that match the lace detail on the JSK and similar wrist cuffs. However I cant find these accessories in the same shade of lavender. So I was thinking of dying them. I've dyed cotton and polyester in the past with no real issues I was just wondering if anyone had specific advice and experience with pastel colour dying (powdered)?

Ive found this post that has been fairly helpful in terms of I will need to find out the make-up of each Lace and I'm guessing if they aren't the same fibre mix I wont get the same pastel shade?

Any help would be much appreciated or even people telling me I'm bonkers and not to do it :)

Thank you
