Definitely subtle, but such a fun new way to play with natural color. I will definitely try it with 'full strength' dyes at some point, but this was perfect for moving some of my exhausts onward 😊
@@MargaretByrdColorQuest Yes! I have to learn so much Margaret about flowers, leaves, stems, roots.... locally available and the best method to use for each one of them.❤️🤗
Can't wait to watch, but HAD to tell you I spotted a hollyhocks garden at the house next to my church this morning.... Fallen blooms outside the fence are fair game, tight?!!!!hahaha
Yay!!! I'm sure the church's gardener will thank you for helping clean up the grounds in exchange for a few hollyhock blooms 💜 I just love them so much, so very cool that you will get to try them out in your dye studio too 😊
These are color modifiers, so you can shift the dye colors to get a wider palette range. I discuss this starting at 4:20 in the video, so check it out if you want to learn more.
It is a fun one to play with for sure! I'm not quite sure what product you are thinking of, but perhaps it is the mordant? It is important to wash fibers well and pre-treat them with aluminum acetate (recommended for cotton) to help with the color bond. There is a playlist about Mordants if you want to learn more about it 😊 If you are asking about something else, please just let me know!
It is amazing how you make magic colors of flowers and ice. Thank you for showing!
You are most welcome! It is truly the magic of nature - I'm just lucky enough to play with it 🌼
😍 it's beautiful!

Can I ice dye using madder and sappanwood poders by splrinking them directly on the ice?
Yes, that should work as they are both strong dye materials. Experiment - its the best way to learn!
May I know what purpose will citric acide and soda ash serve?

Great idea may I ask you again what the product is that you used for the t shirts using flowers in water. agate? Or something like that. Thanks
