Steam-Dyed Tulips

February 12, 2021

Tulip petals are a wonderful flower to create reds & pinks with a steam dyeing technique for your textiles, aka eco-dyeing. Recycling & repurposing a bouquet of tulips, or straight from your spring garden, is an amazing way to enjoy the beauty of flowers long after they have faded. This tutorial will show you how to steam dye with tulip petals on silk using white vinegar & iron water to modify the colors.
