I'll Never Make it as a Housewife...

...I've just managed to dye a load of white washing a rather fetching shade of pink.

Including some of my favourite items of clothing, and a t-shirt I bought boyfriend for his birthday.

Oh well, sod the rest of the housework, I'd better put my feet up, have a nice glass of gin, and think of a way to talk myself and boyfriend into thinking our favourite colour is pink.

  1. Quick, to the supermarket! They sell very useful colour catcher things in the laundry section - stick one in, run another wash and they should go back to normal.

  2. Oh good, Alex said what I was thinking!

    And really, even if it doesn't work, pink is such a lovely color for t-shirts, no?

  3. Thanks for the advice ladies! I'm sick today, and don't live near a supermaket, so can't get hold of the colour catcher thing. I tried the village shop, but no joy. I'm currently trying a cup of bleach in the wash - we'll see what happens!

  6. Why oh why didn't I take your approach when having a laundry malfunction. I'm good @ bleaching things that aren't white. I love the gin idea especially. In fact a GNT sounds divine just about NOW!

    I hope you feel better for the weekend & I bet you & boyfriend will look smashing in pink!
