Let’s get started:
Put on the apron
Pour some dye into the containers making sure you have one for
each colour.
Fold your sheets of paper into eights or even sixteenths.
Dip a corner of the folded paper into a colour then remove
it while trying not to over soak the paper.
Dip another corner into the second colour and remove it.
Repeat this with the corners of the paper.
Allow to dry.
TIPS:
-
Try cutting shapes into the paper before you dip
it in the dye.- Use and eye dropper to colour the centre of the paper.
- You could try the eye dropper on a flat unfolded sheet of paper.
Share and enjoy & have fun.
