I love doing this on fabric & and paper. I call it Rust Painting.

I love these! Especially the dark, grungy one. I love doing both of these processes but you get much better results. You taught me some things which I hope help me the next time I try it. I have a giant collection of rusty bits, I love using washers and springs. My son and grandson keep me supplied with things they find also. Can't wait to see the next video!!!!! Thanks Margaret ❤

Thank you, Jenny! I have been quite pleased with the results, so hopefully you can try some of the next tricks here to see if it makes a difference for you. I would love to try it with washers at some point - I might rust some of my own 😉 Lucky you to have foragers in the family keeping an eye out for rusty bits. Working on the new video for Friday now 🤎

I started an art course this year, and one day out of the week is focused on textiles. Last lesson we studied rust dye! We used small swatches of calico cotton and created different designs using random rusty things we could find from home. We also used vinegar/water spray and covered the cotton with plastic sheeting. Amazingly I had some of the best results in the class, particularly from an old steel circular blade! It dyed almost the whole swatch of cotton a deep, deep blue/ black shade! Can't wait to check on it again next week.

Thanks for sharing! The course sounds wonderful and how lucky you get to work with fiber as well 🤎 It is super cool to see what different metal shapes can do and how different each print can turn out. Your blade sounds incredible!

can you reuse the same rusted nails for another piece?

@MargaretByrdColorQuest 9 ай бұрын

Yes, I reuse my rusted metal time and time again. I mention this towards the end of the video 😊

How colourfast is the rust?

@MargaretByrdColorQuest 7 ай бұрын

Thanks for the question, Deb 😊 Iron is a natural mordant, so since rust is a form of iron oxide, it is considered to be very colorfast and stable.

where did you acquire rusty nails from? i have been trying to make mine rust but cant quite get them to be as rusty as i’d like!

@MargaretByrdColorQuest 2 ай бұрын

I foraged for them 😊 I found them around a beach campsite while I was on residency in Svalbard. Try finding a 'junk' yard near you and just keep your eyes out for rusty bits on the ground when you are out and about. You can also leave your metal out in the elements for a decent amount of time and it should rust well. Spritz it with salt vinegar water and this should hasten the oxidation as well. Best of luck!
