How to Sew Eco Friendly Wrap Gift Bags | DIY Tutorial for Christmas and Valentine’s Gifts

 

Hi , I have a new video for you today! It’s all about how to sew eco friendly wrap gift bags that are perfect for packing gifts for Christmas, Valentine’s, or any other occasion. These bags are reusable, stylish, and easy to make. You can choose from two types of bags: a round one and a square one. The round one can be used as a jewelry pouch or a travel cover, and the square one can be used as a storage bag for socks or other small items. I’ll show you the best fabrics to use, such as silk, satin, cotton, linen, crepe, polycotton, or chiffon. I also made free PDF patterns for both of these bags, which you can download from the link in the video description.

Mixing Dyes

Hello Refashion Co-op. I know winter is coming so I have been getting some sweaters ready. One of them was so dull and drab it was just sad. 

Before and after.

The butterflies on the front of this sweater were pretty but the sweater itself was so washed out. It was just so blah.

I wanted to get a color close to the rose gold of the butterflies. I have never mixed dye but I knew you could do it. I decided to mix some cocoa brown and some petal pink. I hoped for a pinkish brown. 

I put both dyes into my washing machine and stirred the dye a little to mix the colors. Then I put the sweater in to the dye and let my washer do the rest of the work. 

I opened my washer and found that it had worked out well. The color was just what I wanted.

I thought this color was so much better. It really worked well with the butterflies. Thanks for reading along, For more sweater refashions go to I Can Work With That.
