    Halloween Sweatshirt

    I’m obsessed with the Hanes comfort color sweatshirts! (Linked here) I get them in a size Medium and it gives a nice over sized look.

    This morning while cleaning I got bleach on my newest color! So I decided to fix it with more bleach and Orange dye to make a Halloween Sweatshirt. Supplies I used were Rit Dye in Sunshine Orange, Bleach, and rubber bands that’s it! The whole process took me about an hour, and then another 40 minutes to wash and dry. I love how it turned out, and I’m calling it a happy accident!

    I made little clumps that I twisted and banded where I wanted the bleach to go. Elastic those together into a big square sort of.

    Normally I would use the cling gel bleach but I wanted it all to blend and since I spilled this one on me I decided to stick with it. Make sure to cut it 1/2 water 1/2 bleach. I started to see an immediate reaction and within 15 minutes it was done!

    After adding the dye I let it sit for 30 minutes and this is how it looked. I love the vibrant color, but of course it fades a little when you rinse. Rinse until the water runs clear then un band. I popped it into the washer for a quick wash no soap then into the dryer. This is the results!! Of course I can still see the original bleach spot haha but it’s a little camouflage now. Let me know if you try this!!
