What is Paint Dyeing?
Using paint instead of dye pigments, you can dye linens and wood to achieve the perfect hue.Β Much like ourΒ DIY Ombre Beaded Chandelier, you can recreate many traditional dyeing techniques using your fave shade ofΒ Fusion Mineral Paint.
SUPPLIES:
- Shallow basin with water
- Paint stick
- Fusion Mineral Paint inΒ Homestead Blue
- Your chosen fabric
How to Paint Dye Napkins (For Decorative Purposes Only)
Start by filling the basin with enough water to completely submerge your linens.Β Once filled, add a dollop of Fusion
Using a paint stick, stir the paint until itβs completely dissipated within the water.
Now itβs time to add the napkins!Β Submerge them completely, one at a time.Β When theyβve absorbed as many colour as youβd like, ring them out and hang them to dry.
Usually, within 24hrs your paint-dyed napkins will be dry.Β Although theyβre only for decoration, they could still get dirty, in which case you can wash these and the dye should remain on the fabric.
For an added touch, Jennylyn has tied them with twine before setting a lovely tablescape.Β Can you spy any other Fusion projects on the table?
