Purple.

I saw a post over at A Beautiful Mess and was instantly inspired, so I decided to dye one of my own "forgotten" dresses.

The dress.

This dress was the dress I wore under my white high school graduation gown in 2006.

It is a free people dress, and it still fits great. The only reason that I don't wear it anymore is some burns from ironing and some stains from food over the years.

The new color.

Purple! I love purple and always have, and I love almost every shade of purple.

I mixed it in my kitchen sink. It worked out really well and didn't stain the sink at all.

The dress turned out beautiful! I can't wait to wear it. What would you wear it with?

Lady Things.

Tampons.

We all need them and unfortunately they all come in ugly boxes.

This craft makes it possible for your tampons to be in a convenient location but not in a hideous box.

First find a jar like this.

Cut a strip that will fit as a tube in the jar.

 Use a fun bright piece of thread to sew the two ends together.

It will look like this:

If you want to make more than one jar mix up the colors.

Put the felt tubes inside of the jar.

Make some tags and tie them onto your jars.

Finally some fancy storage for your "lady things".
