But I like pink

I used to dye everything I could find. It was one way to turn old clothes into a true treasure. What a great memory when I came upon the boxes at the local Wal-Mart (still at a great price).

And sorry mom for not running an empty cycle and turning your whites a pretty color of pink after a red dye job.

LOL I love Rit Dye and I used to dye my clothes too! I have been known to turn my moms laundy different colors on accident. So funny!

I wonder if I can use it to dye my old jeans a nice dark blue again?

Miss Alice - I can't believe you said that....you can be such a penny pincher.
When I fall in love with navy or brown cotton (dockers) slacks that fade with age I just buy rit dye and brighten them up. It's hard to find a pair of pants to fit me so I would rather pay the $1.50 than to spend hours trying on a pair that will fit again... I know to run the washer again after I'm done. Auntie Em

Well, it seems like a long time since any one I knew dyed any thing but their hair. Maybe we can start again. Mom
