Rose Petal Dye

February 26, 2021

Red rose petals are an organic way to create dusty pink and blush hues for your textile and craft projects. No roses in your garden, no problem! Recycling & repurposing a bouquet with roses is an amazing way to enjoy the beauty of flowers long after they have faded. This tutorial will show you how to brew color from wilting red roses, as well as how to dye paper & the resulting color swatch samples (wet strength tissue paper) with various pre-mordants.
