dye-stravaganza

 Things have been busy busy busy around here (I may or may not have thrown my back out over the weekend on a waterslide at a giant water park...), but earlier Seb and I finally got around to fixing his shorts.  Ages ago Seb got a giant ink stain all over the butt of his shorts and has been wearing them all summer, and I kept telling him to buy dye and we could tie dye them, which would totally hide the stain.  Well, we finally fixed them! And you can't see the ink stain AT ALL.  I'll take a picture of them in action soon, hopefully.  Given that there was dying going on, I snuck a few experiments into the dye as well, and I'm pretty happy with how things turned out!

I'm so enjoying this weather right now - the falling leaves, the cool evenings, the end of summer light, it's all just magical.

ps, Seb isn't actually naked, his shorts are just very short apparently.

    1. We just used a package of Dylon. I'm sure there are more interesting dyes out there, but that's what Seb picked up from Fabricville.

  2. I love these! Especially the naked shot. Kidding! Actually, the best was the Instagram of Seb wearing all the tie dye clothes at once. It seems like you guys are busy in all the best ways! I like this end of summer time, too.
