Our kitchens are a great source of natural dye colours, from vegetable peels that create blush pinks and peaches, fruit skins that make lemon yellows, a green dye sourced from carrot tops, dried spices and used tea bags to create vibrant yellows, rich terracottas and deep browns. Natural Kitchen Dyes takes you through the exciting process of creating these wonderful natural colours, dyeing fabric with the dyes and suggests ingenious ways to get your hands on some natural dye sources. Accompanying the natural dye recipes in the book are ten environmentally conscious projects, which have been created not only to show off the natural dyes beautifully, but to help eliminate waste. Several of the projects actually utilise waste that would otherwise be composted or recycled such as old clothes turned into bags and patchwork floor cushions, to dried pulses past their expiration date used to make a beaded necklace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eCollecting\n\u003cbr\u003eFabrics\n\u003cbr\u003eTools\n\u003cbr\u003eSoya milk\n\u003cbr\u003eColour fast, fugitive and pH sensitive dyes\n\u003cbr\u003eDye basics\n\u003cbr\u003eDye recipes\n\u003cbr\u003eInk \u0026amp; printing\n\u003cbr\u003eModifiers\n\u003cbr\u003eOther dyes\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe projects\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e1.
