Vintage loving ♥

Okay, so when I went thrifting on Sunday my intentions were to look for some more high waisted jeans (as if I need any more SMH) but instead I ran across this vintage chair that screamed "I have potential TAKE ME" lol so I couldn't resist. I mean come on it was only $3.99, yes girl $3.99! I've been working on it ever since and all I need is to find the perfect fabric for re-upholstery. I'm a little timid to purchase it online because knowing me I'll be very unhappy with whatever is sent to me... never satisfied I tell you ha ha. I definitely plan on posting my adventure with you guys when I'm done so you can tell me what you think. I'm excited to see the before & after =) .

Dip Dyeing Denim

Well hello there Darlings,
The other day I was pretty psyched that I had some time to do a little Dip Dyeing with two pairs of my high waisted shorts. I love how they came out which may be an issue because now all I wanna do is DYE everything in sight ha ha. I also took a picture of myself trying them on but the picture came out a little to blurry but if you still would like for me to post them just let me know and i'll add them in. What do you gals think?


Things I used for dip dyeing:
Rit Liquid Dyes in Purple and Aquamarine
Bleach
Scissors
Salt for Dye mix

Goodwill Thrifting Haul

Okay so during yesterdays lunch break i paid Goodwill a little one hour visit and was pleasantly surprised to find some interesting things for 50% off. I go in every now and then to see if i can get my hands on some vintage MOM jeans that i can destruct but i can never find any that actually fit me... sad i know but i did this time *pats self on back* ! As I was walking around I decided to give the back of the store some glancing time and found a bin full of bags, clutches and wallets that have plenty of potential to be revamped. Looks like I'm going to have a busy weekend ha ha.
