      @pechelman I had a demon in my head that saw my Extractor jacket that said "DUNK IT IN THAT VAT BOY!" but I didn't give in.

        @Oaktavia if you have any dye left you could try applying it to a conspicuous spot, maybe like inside a pocket or something. wonder if it would even take. But you probably made the safe call not dunking it.

          @pechelman the dye is no more. Got too oxygenated and I'm all out of materials. I might do it again soon though.

            Here is a Pigeon Tree belt that was Color 8, as you can see by the buckle. The indigo turned this one black which I think turned out pretty cool.

            Indigo dyed bandanas, nice medium blue.

            1000054403.jpg

            I tried these IH patches and I like how they have an indigoness to them too.

            A previously white Descendents shirt was added to the vat as well.

            Here is an old grey IH shirt that turned out similar colored to how one of Filthy's indigo dyed shirt is. I bought that one during the Filthy Auctions.

            1000054380.jpg 1000054381.jpg 1000054383.jpg 1000054385.jpg

            Lastly, this is a hickory train conductor hat. The patch turned super dark which I love, and you can still see the pattern through the indigo.

              @Oaktavia everything definitely does not suck. Really cool to see you experiment with different materials.
              Especially like the dyed shopping bag

                Did I allude to this previously 🤔 if so I didn't intend to. I'm stoked with the results quite happy.

                            Ha, I forgot this shirt was hanging on a tree outside. I'm actually favoring this one more than the others. It's the one that I dyed purple before. Now it has a crinkly tie dye effect. I dig this one a lot.

                              @Mister_Brue yup it was the purple one. After subsequently buying a couple purple shirts from Giles, I figured I had enough purple. Plus a little vat frenzy.

                              Haha. It was on the tree since Saturday.

                                  @Oaktavia I loved reading all of that! Definitely giving this a go when my current white tees are looking a little tired.
