How to Jar Dye
- 1). Gather the fabric in one hand and hold it above the mouth of the jar. Lower the fabric until it pools on the bottom of the jar.
- 2). Sprinkle the pooled fabric with dye powder. You can use one color or combine both. The more dye you add, the more color will be deposited onto your fabric.
- 3). Lower more fabric into the jar, gently pushing it to the bottom and covering the first layer entirely. Sprinkle with dye.
- 4). Repeat Steps 1 to 3 until you reach the top of the jar. Slowly pour boiling water over the fabric and fill the jar. Just before you reach the top, add the table salt.
- 5). Place the lid on the jar and wait for 30 minutes. Pour the jar into the sink and rinse the remaining dye down the drain. Line dry your fabric, or place it in the dryer, then wear or use as desired.
