air dry or oven dry tea dyed paper

[@senpaiseven1155]

The oven dry really gives it a used look, as if it were an old journal. Very pretty. Although I love both for different reasons.

[@JunkJournalideas]

yes it does add some nice colour for sure, thanks a lot Senpai (❁´◡`❁) 🦋 hugs Donna

[@MaAllen417]

Love all your comparisons. When I tea dye I lay a table cloth on the kitchen table. Dip the page, then lay a plastic stencil on the wet paper, then spritz it with a spray bottle of tea or instant coffee and it leave it to dry. The stencils leave marks and its pretty cool. I have also put food coloring in a bottle with a small amount of water and spritzed color over the stencil. Fun to see what you get.

[@jamesreitz245]

Thanks for the oven drying info. I just made a batch of avocado dyed paper. Usually I would lay papers out to dry, but decided to try oven drying which you made sound so easy, & it is. It requires a it more attention [thank goodness for timers on kitchen stoves], but I do like the results. I plan to leave the stacks to thoroughly dry overnight then press the papers under piles of books for a few days to flatten.

[@JunkJournalideas]

Great idea James! I only use the oven method if i need papers done in a hurry and it's winter time, bc as you say it does require more attention for sure. the oven does make them wavey and they do need a little weight to flatten them, sounds like you're all over it, happy creating cheers Donna ☆🦋

[@roosmarie1961]

still watched your tea dyed video and learned something. if you make a travelers note book that you first make your paper to size and then put it in the bath. I learned something again and the water warm that you then the color is more intense I did not know. thank you for this detailed explanation. I always let my paper air dry.there is no why for me.but what a beautiful stove you have Donna.

[@JunkJournalideas]

hey Marthy, you can make your paper to size first, sometimes this makes the paper wavy on the edges and sometimes it lays flat, it depends on if you have a big flat table to lay it out on to air dry. I tea dye my papers in full sheets now and then cut them to size. and yes my stove is amazing!! i have to agree!! ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna

I'm sorry about the loss of your mom. I really love your thorough tutorials. I add a little bit of glycerin to my dye bath.

Hi Larry, depends on what you mean by ink? printer ink or pen ink? if you don't wan't ink to bleed or be seen through the other side use a higher grade paper designed for double sided printing. If you want to use it for water color use water colour paper. in saying that you can make other papers work you just need to experiment with your ink pen or printer? cheers Donna

Thank you for the tutorial on tea dying paper. I don’t know if you have the distress ink pads but if you do you could use the expresso color or something similar and sponge down the cut edge with it. I thought ironing the paper would flatten but not totally. So I thought maybe a little steam would really flatten it. It’s so crinkly does it chip off or tear more easily now? Also have you tried maybe 65 pd cardstock? So intriguing lol. Thanks again for sharing

[@JunkJournalideas]

thanks for your tips Dottie, I have done the edges with distress ink pads yes it does a lovely job and i only use it for 1 page I don't do this method for several pages though :-) I also don't like ironing my papers so i prefer the air dry method they turn out nice and flat for me now. it doesn't chip or tear any different to un stained paper, however it does tear easy when it's wet :-) i use 85gsm always, it's been lovely comparing techniques ♥︎♡☆🦋 hugs Donna
