How to Dye your Wedding Shoes into Ivory

How to Dye your Wedding Shoes

In this episode of tv.weddingism.com, We take a look at how to dye your wedding shoes from White to Ivory. We’ll be using the Caroline by Badgley Mischka

You will need a little sponge, the dye already mixed, preferably with alcohol so it will dry fast and the shoes.

We’re gonna use an Ivory-colored dye that has been pre-mixed. The fabric of this shoe is silk, so it’s an excellent material for dying because it dries very quickly. It’s important to use materials that dry quickly, otherwise you can get stains and rings on the fabric and it will be difficult to get it consistent throughout.

I would probably suggest, if you do it yourself, that you tape around the edges and inside the lining so it will not stain those areas, and the final look will be clean and clear.

We also recommend that you wear gloves at all times to prevent getting your fingers stained or making a mess.

What you want to do us dip the sponge or cotton ball into the dye and spread it throughout the fabric quickly so you don’t get any marks or runs or rings in there. Also you want to go immediately into the small areas before attacking the big areas.

Note: If there are Rhinestones in your shoes, you have to soak the dye with the cotton piece around them. To do this well, make sure that you do it very quickly.

The most important thing to remember is to go quickly to prevent rings.
