first entry!

hello new super secret special diary !!!

I'm hoping to be more of a blogger so this is my first try. I also want to start reading other peoples blogs, so suggestions... come flying in!!

I'm gonna start posting some outfits i wear too! so here's the first-
Photobucket

I usually dress pretty boring unless it's the weekend or I'm going out, because on weekdays I hate to admit it but I'm usually in my apartment 24 hours a day, mostly working, unless I wander out to the streets in search of food or fresh virgin blood to feast upon. So leggings, tank top, sweater. and the occasional hot dog suit when i feel like kicking it up a notch.

Anywayz, Tonight I dyed some fabric and I can tell its going to be great! I used this fabric dye called Idye, by Jaquard. At first I could only find it online, then discovered it at an art supply store nextsdoor in my old town, but on a recent trip to Joann Fabrics I discovered they stock it now!! Its really amazing because they have a ton of colors you wouldn't be able to find else wear (Like chartruese and pastels!!) i usually stick to pastels but they kept coming out way lighter than I wanted, so I tried violet tonight and they garments aren't completely dry but I think they'll look awesome! I love how when I dye slips the trim comes out a slightly different shade. I even threw in a couple pairs of my underwear in my excitement. they were covered with stains so the dye fixed that right up (Totally JK- ING!). I did it on my stove top but I'd love to try a washing machine, my apartment only has a front loader one that is dryer and washer built into one (kind of annoying, it takes 4 hours each load!)

I'll post some pics of the dye job tomorrow!!

love, kelly
