Chenille Dye - First attempt

[Ron Don]

This is my first attempt at dyeing this crystal chenille. Ive done feathers before but not this. I wasn't able to get as bright of colors as I wanted to but I will keep at it! In the pic the one that June is trying to grab is the one I dyed. The right is chartreuse that I bought a while back. On the fair left you can barely see a piece of the pearl that Im dying.



The little piece in the middle was something I tried a small piece as an experiment. That dude is bright! I just need to work out some issues with it before I do up a bunch!

Good job there Ronnie. Did ya use Momma's washing machine?

 

[Ron Don]

Adam its all crystal. I did a motor oil color that turned out pretty cool. I Let it soak for 2 days!

Heck naw I didn't get close to the washer! I did find out that the dye works much faster on your clothes when it splatters on them!

Ho's" that'd throw in with me! I know, but I'm seeing a Dr.!
