Before you read any further, this post is about stripping DYE from fabric!
I just had a fun adventure with my first dye-stripping experience. I sent Pavo Textiles Trillium Halo to my friend Sarah at Blake’s BabyWearing Blog for a new look!
Sarah did an AMAZING job, y’all! I sent Halo with some of the supplies I had purchased when I foolishly thought I would undertake this project myself (hahaha!), and Sarah got it started right away, sending updates throughout the process. She assured me that she would take all of the recommended safety precautions (as a chemist, I was concerned about chemical exposure), and that she follows the instructions exactly, so the results would be very even.
Halo is a light aqua color, and it unexpectedly turned purple when the stripping chemicals began working. I am so thankful that Sarah sent so many pics – it was great to feel like I was part of the process from afar. You never really know exactly how stripping will affect a color, so I was thrilled when she told me it was getting all the way white! Sarah was able to wash, dry, and steam iron it by the next day – her turnaround time was incredible! She shipped super fast, and Trillium Snow arrived exactly when expected, and even more wonderfully snowy white than I was expecting! If you’re thinking of stripping a wrap, Sarah is available through her blog and Facebook page, and her results are impeccable!
