It's SUPER simple that way. After that I just run another load of nothing so it's all clean, and BAM! Done! :) I have dyed many a garment, and i’ve had the best luck by putting it in the washing machine on hot. It’s SUPER simple that way.

I used the iDye packets you used for your chair covers... and same thing, I wanted to go black. HA! Three washing machine dye attempts later, I ended up with the same kind of purpley-grey instead of black. Ah well, it's nice and unlike any other color I have in my closet, and happily, it's not white :) I guess going from white to black is really hard to do.

When I did mine I was so nervous but it turned out well! Maybe look at what fabrics it's made of and try to google to see if they'll take dye well (natural fibers like cotton and silk take it really well). Good luck! xo, s

I am so scared but no one in maryland will do it. I just got my dress heimed to my knee. Do you all think it will work even with a wedding dress? I want to dye my wedding dress black.
