discharge dyeing




Its actually a process of removing colour instead of adding colour. I used bleach on a doily and got a beautiful result. I put the bleach on a stamp and got a great result also. I tried using a spray bottle and sprayed the bleach over some ferns, but it didn't turn out too great as the spray bottle was dripping, so I got big drip marks on the fabric. I ran out of black fabric, and as the fabric store had the kona black on sale, they didn't have any left. I will have to try again in a few weeks.

I've only tried it the once, but really liked the result. Fun isn't it?
