how to create a "rock look" for a Birthday Party by dyeing sheets


Name: Mike
Message: I am trying to create a "rock look" for a Birthday Party by dyeing sheets but in different colors (maybe 3). Any suggestions?

Try the method shown on "How to Do Low Water Immersion Dyeing". Use neutral mixtures of colors, in small quantities, to create pale colors on the fabric. Be sure that your sheets are at least partially made of cotton; for pale colors, 50% cotton will do very well, though you must use 100% cotton for dark or intense colors.

To mail-order fiber reactive dye, see my list of different companies that sell dyeing supplies.
