Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the dye bath

- Fill the large pot with enough water to cover the tulle.

Step 2: Add the tulle

- Once the dye bath is ready, add the tulle to the pot.

- Use the wooden spoon to stir the tulle to ensure even dyeing.

- Let the tulle simmer in the dye bath for 15-30 minutes, or until it reaches the desired color.

Step 3: Rinse the tulle

- After the tulle has reached the desired color, remove it from the dye bath and rinse it thoroughly in cold water until the water runs clear.

Tips

- To achieve a lighter color, use less dye.

- To achieve a darker color, use more dye or simmer the tulle for a longer period of time.

- If you want to create a pattern on the tulle, you can use a resist method such as wax or tape to prevent the dye from reaching certain areas.

- Be sure to wear gloves and a mask when working with fabric dye to avoid staining your skin or clothing.
