Amazing! So much easier than dragging the whole dress to the tub and then figuring out where to hang it to dry, or waiting for a few nice days in a row to work on it
@@slbarbieri1725 I’m guessing I will still have to do that for the majority of the dresses I will work on, but I will definitely try this technique again on certain dresses in the future.
@@lizanicole5145 I’ve actually had several requests from folks for that, but I feel I have too much to learn and experiment with first before doing anything like that 😊
@@winterroses2020 Peroxide is stored in an opaque bottle because it is a highly reactive chemical that readily decomposes when exposed to light, so the dark container prevents sunlight from triggering this breakdown process, ensuring its stability and longevity.
Ok its now stain free but you still need to wash it in plain water and soap don't you? Otherwise its still dirty. And now is full of a very large amount of hydrogen peroxide. I wouldn't want such large amount of chemicals to be on my clothing and in contact with my skin.
@@sandravasquez7628 This was done as an experiment to see if hydrogen peroxide could lighten the oxidation on the lace / dress without soaking or rinsing the vintage dress ( I do soak hundreds of vintage garments a year. ) Hydrogen peroxide is water and oxygen.
@@BarbaraSculati girl I know you work WONDERS soaking dresses ❤️❤️❤️!!! I love your transformations😍! And also know this was an experiment. But what I meant is that since the experiment went SO well and the dress is now unstained it could use (in my oppinion) a light wash, like no soaking time, just a regular wash to get rid of dust. AMAZING results with the lace!

It looks new! Have you ever thought about writing and selling a small booklet/guideline on how to clean antique and vintage clothing?

What a transformation! ❤👍🏻☺️
@@dianemaria3486 I am so pleased with how it turned out!
Good to know. I am wondering if this method can be used for other fabrics? What do you think?
@@CJG1419 This was my first time with doing this, so I don’t know yet on other fabrics but I plan to keep experimenting with it! 😊
❤❤❤❤❤
Why does the opaque bottle matter?
