I bought this jacket ages and ages ago, like I was in high school when I bought this. I wore it a lot back when I bought it, but for some reason even though I've kept the jacket all these years, I haven't really been wearing it much for a long time.

| The original state of the jacket. Yeah, that pin is covering up a stain. |
When I did
this dye experiment, I decided to take a chance and throw this old jacket in the dye as well. This was the result.
 |
| I didn't take a lot of care to make sure the fabric dyed evenly, and I love the uneven look of the color. AND you can't see the stain anymore. |
 |
| I love the look of the buttons, which didn't take the dye, along with the dyed fabric. |
Here's the cool part: since I dyed this jacket a few weeks ago, I've worn it like six times. It's awesome, and this jacket totally has a new life now. I'm definitely going to try dying other pieces that I've stopped wearing.
