Thank you for this simple explanation and demonstration of how to dye "silk" scarves with Sharpie Markers and alcohol.
Question: does the fabric have to be pure silk or will synthetic "silk" work?
Thank you. 😘💕🌷

Hello! Thank you....you can try using spray varnish. 😊💫

Do you have to heat set?

[@didsburyartstudio]

Hi Susan I carefully ironed it once dry which tends to seal it. However, if you were to wash it in future I would hand wash in cool water just to be safe. 👍🏻

I assume this is non washable ?

Hi you just heat set it with an iron.🧐
