Oh my goodness. I absolutely love these. I have ice dyed cotton and it turns out awesome too. Thank you so much for sharing.

Thanks! If nothing else it’s worth putting some paper in the bottom of the tray when you’re ice dyeing fabric to catch the extra dye 😀

Very very nice 👍

Wow 😍 that's a whole load of very beautiful papers!! I chuckled at your drying scene 😂, good to know what to expect when waiting for them to dry lol. They have all turned out beautifully, I even like the white spaces on the back of the bamboo paper. Thanks so much for sharing this awesome technique ❤😊

9:04 I ice dye fabric. I just wanted to mention that you will get white patches if your scrunch is deep and the water can’t flow them those spots. You can always do another layer of ice and get more water to flow through hopefully carrying the dye into those spots. Since this is paper, I would probably do a more shallow scrunch to make sure the dye makes it everywhere. Back to the video. I’m excited to see how everything turns out! ❤

Yes I think I should probably have done a shallower scrunch or put more ice on. Will have to keep experimenting 😊

Gorgeous!

Thank you!!

22:46 they came out beautifully. The ones you didn’t rinse definitely has residual dye on them. Air born powder would be a concern. The paper that you dyed in “the muck” in the bottom of the container are really cool. Thanks for sharing your process!

[@RoseWildsmith]

Hmm maybe I should rinse them then in case there’s airborne powder 😬 I hadn’t thought of that!
