Tips for using RIT dye & mistakes to avoid👇🏻
1. I used Rit All-Purpose Dye. This is good for cotton, wool, nylon, linen, & more.
2.Pre-wash your fabric, I soaked the plant hanger in the tub with a little Dawn dish soap.
3. Mistake number one. Use HOT water. At first, I just used tap water. I had to dye it again because the color wasn’t vibrant enough.
4. Mistake number two. Stir constantly: When dyeing your fabric, stir constantly to ensure an even distribution of the dye. I didn’t stir much the first time.
5. Mistake number three: add one cup of salt (or vinegar, depending on the fabric) I also didn’t do this the first time around. I didn’t have any on hand.
6. Rinse thoroughly: After the fabric has been dyed, rinse it thoroughly with cool water until the water runs clear.
7. Wear gloves: RIT dye can stain your skin and clothes.
8. Soak in Rit ColorStay Dye fixative immediately after dying.
9. Experiment with colors: Don’t be afraid to mix different colors to create unique shades. Start with small batches to test the color and adjust as needed.
10. Im not sure if it was the temperature of the water, the salt, or the stirring, but the fabric came out 10X darker the second time & I’m super happy with it.
