Welcome to Greece❣️ I can't wait to see the results with the olive leaves and I hope you will experiment with the fig leaves as well 🥰

Thank you for the warm welcome to Greece! Do you live there, and if so, which island or mainland area? It is such a beautiful country 🌼 I wish I had known about fig leaves on this trip, so will have to keep that in mind when I am lucky enough to return. Thank you for the suggestion 🤎

@@MargaretByrdColorQuest I live on the south side of Mount Olympus at an altitude of 860 meters. If you ever use fig leaves, don't put the fabrics with the leaves because they will put the milk at the edge of the pot in the form of chewing gum which can stain the fabrics. Always be well and creative 🥰

@@ΙώΑμαδρυάς Sounds like a magical place to live! Best to you as well 🤎 Thank you for the tips on fig leaves - how interesting 😊 I don't have fig trees where I live, but it is always great to know the secrets of future dyes. What color does it make on fiber?
