Maxi Dress Fever
Posted by joyousjess , Friday, April 30, 2010 11:11 PM
I am in LOVE with maxi dresses.. I have seen so many beautiful tie dyed maxi dresses that I have been tempted to get, but I feel wierd wearing someone elses when I could make it myself. Most anyone who knows me personally would surely say, "Wow, did you make that?" And I will have to hang my head in shame and say, "No.. I did not." Sounds silly but I just love making my own! & It is really hard to come by a white cotton maxi dress for a decent price!
Speaking of that, this is THE most beautiful white cotton maxi dress I have ever seen. Sadly, it is sold out in my size and way out of my budget anyway! But wow, it would have been so beautiful. I use to make and sell my tie dye, but now I pretty much just do it for myself (and family galore). I love it when it's more of a hobby! But, I still have some tie dye tshirts that are on sale from last summer for only $5 and a couple of tanks on my etsy, so if you are interested the website is: http://www.gethappytiedye.etsy.com/
A sure plus of making your own tie dye rather than buying it: The price! I try to keep the prices on mine low, but most handmade tie dye sells for a fortune! It takes talent, time and effort to make the clothing but it's not very expensive to do yourself if you are willing to take the time to learn how and do it right. It can become a worthwhile hobby that results in a very cute wardrobe! :)
I made this dress last summer, it was my very first tie dye dress! I bought it white for (I wanna say) $14. I love how adorable the colors and the pattern turned out!I'm off to bed, GOODNIGHT! :)
