More Dyed Lace Love...

Renate
Renate

The lace fashion crush is still going strong, my friends. We're loving all kinds of DIY lace confections lately. If you're itching to add some gossamer delights to accent your wardrobe, here's a few ideas to get you started...

From the wonderfully talented Marisa Lynch of NewDressADay, check out this JCrew-inspired tank top that she made from a thrifted glam gown! She was sweet enough write up a tutorial to show you how to design and dye one for yourself. ♡!

AND we've noticed a few lacey numbers bubbling up from the Rit Color Community as well.

Take a peek at Sarah's refashioned delicates. She's creating a whole collection of reconstructed granny unmentionables into super camis and dresses that she's unveiling at the Balboa Park's upcoming Earth Fair in San Diego. Big thumbs up for spreading the eco-chic love, girl!

  

Not into that much sewing?  Try DECOR8Rgirl's easy, dyed-lace floral accents. These are just perfect to embellish almost anything that needs a little pizazz. Add a rufflely flower to hat, dress or evening clutch? Ooh, I could picture whipping up a bunch in different shades for a neckline adornment to spice up a boring Tshirt. 

    

Hmmm, maybe I'm getting that idea from Edie's embellished Tee tutorial. She added dyed buttons to the mix for a more textured look. Love that she upcycled a pair of old nylon lace tights to make some of the flowers. 

      

Well, whatever the inspiration, go find yourself some old lace and get dyeing!  It makes for a great weekend project and an easy way to add a little femme to the spring wardrobe.

Oh, and one extra tip, look for cotton or nylon lace which will dye up just lovely. Polyester, unfortunately, doesn't play well with Rit Dye.
