I belong to a lovely group on Facebook and their latest swap was a fabric dye/distress/stamp one. I am swapping with 6 other UK ladies and decided to stick to dye and stamp. I kept the juice from some frozen berries and made a thin solution with the spice turmeric (plenty of water and spice mixed). I used some old pillow cases for the experiment. I literally just dipped them and hung them over the bath to dry naturally. I wanted the fabric to look 'old' and imperfect. When they dried I used water colour paints (from the tub no mixing) and brushed the colour onto some rubber stamps (clear ones are no good at 'holding' the paint). I used a few paper doilies for the patterns. They seemed to have turned out just right :)

Love.
ReplyDeleteOh, these are really pretty. I love everything about them, the color, the fabric, and the design. How creative these are. I am wondering, if you wash it, will the design and color start to rinse away?

These colours have not been set so yes they would run if washed! xx
