The Anna Karenina dress

I finally got around to holding up the white box pleated, black rolled hem organza I have for this dress, and I realized my precious linen is really ivory. Oh no! The white is GLARING. What to do?

Tea!

Lemon tea!

No, not to calm me down, to dye my poly organza trim. I wondered if it would take the tea dye, but it did. Yay!



See the difference between the tea-dyed test strip of organza and the glaring white organza? Yay, I'm so glad it worked!
