These ribbons used to be white and after some Rit dye they now look like this:
I love how they look wrapped around my decoupaged Easter eggs and vintage spools:
The doilies in this basket got the same treatment. They turned out a bit darker, since their original color was more beige:
I'm enjoying seeing these soothing colors in my living room, along with more spring touches sprucing up all the whites:
The daybed corner has some cheerful spring elements...
It's a romantic place to sit, under this lovely image of Little Madonna. I did end up painting her frame white.
Well, it's quite a relief to look out my window and see all the snow we got Friday has melted quite a bit. Spring will be here before we know it!
