Glad to be of help❣

@@BrownGirlDIYs i have a question... can we use any type of cloth to dye?

@@krishashah5235 The best ones to use are those made from natural materials such as cotton, muslin, silk, wool and linen. These fabrics hold the dye better. Synthetic blends will take some dye, but will usually be lighter in color.

Thank you! Glad you liked it ♥️

btw I opened it up today and it looks so cool!

@@PattyPatPat010 Happy to hear that. Thank you for watching 💕

Pre-wash fabric/cloth before dyeing to remove starch, oil or other impurities.

Thank you♥️

Hey! You don’t have to mix anything with the onion water.

Thanks for your response.

Thank you!

Yes..you can use paper

@@BrownGirlDIYs ，thk u for your prompt response！

Violet onions

White cooking vinegar

It will depend upon how much fabric/garments you wish to dye.

You can use Lemon juice instead of vinegar

Hey..I don’t exactly remember but I think I used skins of around 1kg onions. It will depend upon how many fabrics u wish to dye. More the skins darker will be the color.

@@BrownGirlDIYs got it, thank you so so much!! 🦋

It will shrink

No! Don’t mix the mordant with the dye bath. Soak fabric in the mordant, let it sit for a period of time and then remove and soak it in the dye bath.

@@BrownGirlDIYs Thanks for informing me, I was about to mix it since I'm scared that the color would fade away quickly. Btw I soaked my samples about 5 hours with mordant, is that bad?

Vinegar helps the dye to bond well with the fabric...you can use lemon juice instead of vinegar if you don't have vinegar

Ok tnxs

No! it won’t after washing with detergent

@@BrownGirlDIYs Thanks!

For me, the color came out to be reddish orange. The color shade depends on how much onion skins you use. More the skins, darker will the color.

@@BrownGirlDIYs so I have to put more red onion skins to achieve pink reddish color?

@@fatimah9332 Onion skins doesn’t produce pink color. For pinkish color, you will have to use beetroot or rose petals. Red onion skins produce earthy shades such as orange, reddish orange and brown color.

@@BrownGirlDIYs thank you so much for correcting me :)

@@BrownGirlDIYs thanks a lot!!

Since the fabric has not been dyed synthetically, the color will fade in time. However, there are several steps you can take to minimize this. Natural dyes are more likely to fade from using detergents, so hand wash them if possible. This will ensure that the color lasts longer. If you have to wash your fabric in a washing machine, use a non-bleach based detergent and set the machine to a cold wash setting.

@@BrownGirlDIYs tq

@@BrownGirlDIYs this is not working. Tried it with beet as I remove from color bath then wash with cold water all color Rinse out then there hardly any color on clothes.

@@prathamesh4737 Hey..beetroot is a very mild dye. For half kg fabric you will have to use atleast 9 kg of beetroots to achieve a good pink color. It is very risky to use beetroots. Try dyeing with onion skins. You will definitely get good results.

@@BrownGirlDIYs thx but I will try with beet root instead onion skin. I like how beet root color is

White vinegar which is used for cooking purposes.

Brown Girl DIYs Thanks

@@ruwinimalsha5702 You can use natural fabrics such as cotton, silk, linen and wool.
