  • Getting color on fabric doesn't have to be hard. I do love my fabric paints and my natural dyes but sometimes I just want to grab a bunch of my mixed media supplies and get some color down.
    In this video I will sample some of the popular mixed media supplies on fabric and test them against water. Make sure you stick around for the end so you can see the colorful fabrics I created using my favorite mixed media supply for fabric!

    Susan, I can't thank you enough for this exceptional video!
    This is the tutorial for the first step to the unintentional perfection of your Just Because books. The colours are fantastic and each piece seems to tell a story on its own. Great source of inspiration! 🤗❤️🤗

    All of these pieces look soooo delicious! I have many of these paints, and can’t wait to play. However, If I’m going to frame a piece of art work, do I need to be concerned about fading? If so, what would be a more permanent option? Thank you. Love this channel.

    Let's try this again Susan...hope you get to read this one. I just tried some of my own fabric dyeing techniques, very similar to yours, They are currently outside drying in the sun, all wadded up into balls of yummyness! It's super hot here today, and humid as well. We shall see how long these take to dry out. Loved this project, gurl friend! Thank you for all the really neet-o ideas on your channel! ;)

    Great experimental results! What color of India [Bombay) ink did you use to get the rust shade in your final results? It looks like one could use it in lieu of boiling with rusty bits if you added some objects and bound it to dry. Maybe you could experiment and add to another video.

    Thank you so much Susan, these fabrics are gorgeous. I’ve just experimented doing this exact same thing with food colouring before I came across your video. Am desperately trying to find a way of colouring fabric using the same technique but need it to be colourfast. I would like to make some slow stitch pot plant wraps. Do you have any recommendations on what I could use? 😊
