Dyed Paper

I have made a small coptic bound bound using some of the paper that I had dyed previously. I covered the book with some of my eco dyed paper.











 I have also been dyeing more paper using my doilies and shelf liners to create patterns on the paper.














Then with the leftover dye liquid I coloured paper bags and other paper that I had to hand.







 I have also been experimenting with dyeing paper using food colouring.  Here are the results, gorgeous vibrant papers.

    So much yumminess! I love the doily papers. Do you use paper doilies or old crochet / tatting ones? I guess you could use strips of lace too.... here I am in Dunedin suddenly wanting to go straight home to start dying....

    Hi Cally, I use the crocheted/tatted doilies and I am sure lace will work. The shelf liners are synthetic so anything that will resist the dye should work.
