How to Rescue a Dress from the Donate Pile

Happy Friday! I wore this dress which I found at a clothing swap last summer.   As a simple dress, I got a little bored with the color and was thinking about tossing it in the to-donate pile for my next thrifting trip.  But I decided to get a box of RIT Dye and see if I could give it a fresh look with color.  I’m happy with the results.  For a person who doesn’t have sewing skills (yet), a box of dye is my favorite way to give clothing a new look.  If you have one, what’s your favorite way to rescue items from the donate pile?
