Tutorial: Easy ombré lace hems

[@underthebookcover]

I might actually use this technique for my wedding dress I'm making! This would add such a cool element to the bottom hem!

[@GinnyDi]

That sounds AMAZING!

You're an incredibly gifted cosplayer, but also, a brilliant and fabulous teacher!! There are many gifted individuals in various different creative fields. But sometimes a gifted person might not be able to teach others how to achieve the results they want. You are able to both create, and teach others what they need to know, in a insightful and fun way! You possess both gifts, and that speaks to your outstanding talent in the cosplay world!!

Oh man you just saved me literally years of my life having to learn how to embroider!

[@CharlieStuff407]

YAY! Magically Changing Ginny Derp Faces!!!!

I'm doing a stylized cosplay of the killer rabbit from Monty Python and wanted to dye the ends of my dress and sleeves red. Having never dyed anything before, I was very nervous but this video was very helpful!

[@GinnyDi]

Um, that sounds AMAZING. Best of luck, glad I could help!

[@caroline456]

This is so helpful!! Thanks! Looking forward to not being as intimidated by color gradients anymore

[@fernferguson169]

1. You're amazing at cosplay. Seriously you're my model of what cosplay should be.
2. That's a really cute top.

[@GingerGeekGirl]

1- I love this format for tutorials, plus the video quality and how you showed us everything is excellent!!
2- This is incredibly helpful for some things I have in mind this year, thank you!!

[@rowaena6561]

I love your tutorials! I always learn a lot. They’re so comprehensive.

[@GinnyDi]

I'm so happy to hear that!!

[@kamille286]

I do not yet know what I will do with this, but I'm definitely gonna do this at some point, this is awesome!

[@Golemkind]

This is such a good tutorial 😩🙏🏼 Definitely gonna use it at some point in the future

[@GinnyDi]

Hooray!! Glad it's helpful!!

[@LW-fe9sq]

You're my savior! i've been wanted to use something like this for my jester cosplay! this and the makeup tutorial are life savers

[@sewlovelyyy6718]

Hey! I was just thinking about doing a Jester cosplay since I loved yours so much (your jester Christmas parody made me fall in love with the series and I just binged a ton of episodes this past week, and your explanation video was PERFECT and I 100% agree with what you said, looking back at it after getting more context and listening to the podcast) and this is a really clear and concise explanation! I didn’t know how I wanted to go about doing this process, so it’s nice to see how you did yours and what products you used!! 💕💕💕

[@moxyimmortal3256]

Hi Ginny! I’m a super big fan of your videos! I found this video super helpful, great job and keep up the great work! Thank you so much for being such a big inspiration to me :D

[@xAupego]

What a coincidence, I just got back from buying dye for my Jester dress and this pops up in my notifications! Great tutorial, Ginny!

[@peachberryfox]

Yeees!! Ginny, your tutorials are always so clear and insightful! Thank you!

[@spacepiratecaptainrush1237]

I've never used dyes or lace for anything yet so far, mostly because I tend towards either darker or less elegant characters, but this is still a really well done tutorial and I think I'll make a new playlist for this and other useful things I don't know how to do yet. Also the making faces bit made me chuckle.

[@jennaelizabeth4303]

This makes me so happy. I needed something so sweet this morning!

[@MiniMexii]

I’m actually working on cutting out lace for my Jester cosplay for Emerald City Comic-Con 😂 great timing for the tutorial!

[@candygirl77777]

I needed this!!! I’m making my own jester cosplay and this looks like an awesome way to do those pieces. Thank you so much!

[@valasafantastic1055]

Thanks I have plans to make such things in the future!

[@EnasniVee]

So thankful for this tutorial! I need to do some ombre dying for my Beau and was feeling a bit lost, but this makes sense to me!

[@youninshuriayn5568]

I loved this so much !! So informative and calm!!!

[@DontHaveSexWithSam]

you make cosplay so attainable! when i first thought i might want to make my own jester cosplay, i was so intimidated by all the steps, but after watching your video's for a little bit, it feels so much more doable! Thanks!

[@KatOfDiamonds]

YES YES YES!! I was going message you about this soon because I need to do it for one of my next cosplays!

[@ash-tv3bu]

this looks like a great, relatively easy way to take a simple project to the next level, i'll definitely have to try it! thanks for the awesome tutorial 🖤

[@dram4qu33n]

Thank you so much for this tutorial!! It was really helpful and your instructions were very clear. Can't wait to try it out! :)

[@warrensteel9954]

This would have been amazing to watch before my first dye job in 2008. Mmmm grey trouser stew.

[@travisthornton7546]

For most costumes like the one shown are you making the segments with piping and then attaching then or adding them to a coat you already made. If so I'd love to see how that's done.

[@clairebleh1756]

Thank you so much for this video, it was super helpful! ♡

[@monarch3495]

I love your tutorials! Keep it up.

[@kattriella1331]

Ooh, I might try this with a cloak I plan to make. White fading into dark blue would be pretty.

[@bretthagey9421]

Someone needs to make a gif of the face change lol.

[@Sara-yr4kk]

this was so helpful thank you

[@joyceliber9849]

Please make a video making a two tone dye

[@TiffanyAndrada4]

Do you have a video for that skirt ?

[@LaInspectora]

Ohhhhh... I somehow thought you were going to be doing the lace as well! I'm hoping to take advantage of this tutorial soon, looks like I'll need to save my pennies for the real silk chiffon instead of the cheaper stuff 😉

[@GinnyDi]

LaInspectora like... tatting my own lace?? I’m not crazy... 😜

[@LaInspectora]

Oh my gosh, aint nobody got time for that! 😆😂 I just meant I thought maybe you dyed the lace as well. ❤

[@emilyw2962]

Can I ask what fabric you used for your snow white skirt? The skirt drapes so beautifully and I assume it was made of natural fibers if you died it.

[@GinnyDi]

It's silk chiffon, so yes, it's a natural fiber fabric that takes dye very well!

[@GoldenPerception]

Did you dye the lace as well?

[@GinnyDi]

Nope! I just got lace in the color I wanted. Dyeing lace is a lot harder because the different materials may take dye differently. (Not to mention I think most laces that you can get for reasonable prices are synthetics.)

[@anabeatrizpaiva4038]

You are so funny

[@heathengremlin992]

Rip me the Jester shirt I bought is a poly/spandex blend so I can’t dye it with the dye I bought ☹️☹️

[@EvolNioxis]

Spent the whole video counting the bricks behind you didn't hear a single thing you said sorry..
I hit the like button though.

[@GinnyDi]

Evol Saiyan man, every time I think RUclips can’t get weirder...

[@medievalterrence9691]

I don't have a big pot to dye in. Can I borrow your pot? Come to Colorado for the pot.

[@GinnyDi]

ugh I can't wait until it's legal everywhere so people will stop making the same 3 jokes about it

[@medievalterrence9691]

Sorry, @@GinnyDi .

[@Dnd-Versatility]

Jester update. The song is still not on Spotify. May the ruby of the sea guide us trough these dark times
