I have a light pair of suede boots &amp; when they look grubby &amp; battered I&#39;m so going to do this to them! Thanx for the idea Avril!

I have spilt a drop of oil on my new-ish taupe suede Jones the Bootmaker boots, which I&#39;m gutted about as they just look really skanky. I love the colour they are but may try this if I can&#39;t find a way to remove the stain. <br /><br />Nic xNic StrawberryBlondehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05402011611591634516[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1309613786929270593.post-7212949165787679752013-11-19T13:33:58.140+00:002013-11-19T13:33:58.140+00:00I know Donna! Must be a nylon thread - I&#39;m really pleased it didn&#39;t...makes them look so much more authentic as brown boots! xschoolgatestylehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11374320337030060565[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1309613786929270593.post-5027940514529990352013-11-19T13:33:00.786+00:002013-11-19T13:33:00.786+00:00Oh this comment made me lol - and freak out a tiny bit! But luckily, I got another bottle today and it looks pretty much the same so don&#39;t worry Sue - we&#39;re all good. They are drying now - I&#39;ll share them tomorrow xschoolgatestylehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11374320337030060565[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1309613786929270593.post-17508710527267187362013-11-19T13:26:32.318+00:002013-11-19T13:26:32.318+00:00I&#39;ll let you know Sandra when the second coat dries. They were a bit hard this morning I have to say but the instructions say that you need to brush them with a suede brush when dry so that may make a difference. I&#39;ll keep you posted! Oh and you&#39;ll probably need 4 or 5 bottles - I easily used two on these as the colour difference was so different. xschoolgatestylehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11374320337030060565[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1309613786929270593.post-62104299855236839752013-11-19T07:45:38.667+00:002013-11-19T07:45:38.667+00:00Yay, thanks for this post. I have a pair of cream knee high suede boots that I have never worn and I have been debating whether to sell or dye them. Getting them dyed professionally was going to cost more than the boots did in the first place so I am glad that you had success dyeing your own. Did the suede stay nice and soft when the dye dryed, or did it go a bit hard?sandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17839286196047989551[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1309613786929270593.post-80820439230904725352013-11-18T22:03:43.072+00:002013-11-18T22:03:43.072+00:00OMG - I&#39;d be so freaked if I ran out half way through? What if the next batch of dye doesn&#39;t match perfectly? Will it be like when you&#39;re decorating and you need to find serial numbers on tins of paint to make sure they all come from the same batch?
