11 Of The Best Tips To Dye Fabric Flawlessly

Easy
In the past I have dyed everything from lamp shades, clothing, drapery, and upholstery fabric. Some projects turned out fantastic, while others had blotchy stain marks from the dye, which had to be thrown out. There is no doubt that dying fabric is an art that takes practice. With larger pieces of fabric, dying can become more complicated than small swatches.
Before coming to the States, I mostly used Rit dye. This was one of the few products I had access to before learning about ebay and all the other products that are available online now.
Enjoyed the project?

I have used fabric and wallpaper previously and they turned out perfectly. I found the instructions for making a template somewhere on Google. You can use a sheet, shower curtains (new or used), wrapping paper and so much more.
