y’all this works amazing for clothing & it’s very earth friendly (it will fade a little but if you start out with white clothes it will look very pastel and gorgeous)
Some vegetable dyes I came across. Orange - Carrot (More vibrant than adding red + yellow) Green - Spinach (Much more consistent than adding yellow + blue) Brown - Tea Bags
I've just used the last of the brambles in the garden to dye some calico cotton for a junk journal project I'm starting. Beautiful results and also used elastic bands to make decorations
Sounds like you guys are eating some of these veggies fresh for the first time. These happen to be some of the healthiest veggies available. I hope you incorporate them into you normal diet. My go-to salad is loaded with shredded purple cabbage and grated with turmeric on top. Delicious and nutritious!
Yes seeing that there’s such a small amount of time and the videos I would rather everything be focused on what they can teach us rather than the cute stuff… I know I’m being a bit picky but when you’re brand new and you’re trying to learn every minute counts… Also two people doing the teaching is distracting and again I would rather hear if you’re using certain vegetable and you want to change the color I want to know Do I use lemon do I use lime I want very specific ABCs and not all over the place. Having complained however this is a very good video.
I actually jumped at the fire explosion.. i was so focused on the water changing colour, the fire burnt my eyebrows off. Was not expecting that 😂 😂😂 i will be suggesting these baby friendly fabric dyes to my son's childcare centre, for tie dye shirt day. Thanks heaps ❤
I store them in the refrigerator for about a week in a glass jar with a lid. After about a few weeks mold started to grow on top. I dye paper and fabric with mine.
the red cabbage doesn't turn blue for " the reaction with the acid", is has some molecules, the antocianine, that reacts and changes colour based on the pH Saying that the original purple is from a pH=7, so a neutral one, it turns reddish with lower/acid pH and blue with higher/basic pH
Can you tell us another naturally occurring high base to help it turn blue? perhaps one that can be grown or in some other way be found without shopping for it?
@@chandlerbryant6680 I wouldn't suggest them very much, there are a lot of different kinds of acids, from lemons,vinegard and usually sodas, but there are really few basic ones, baking soda could be the only easy one to use in those cases, egg albumen is also a little basic and also used in some inks, but the quantity could be a bit big and it could go rancid, ammonia and bleach are pretty basic, but also pretty dangerous to use in things/cases they aren't supposed to be used
@@lorenzoemmepi3302 Ammonia. Let's focus on that. So theoretically I could do like the colonials used to do and make chamber lye and use that as a base to turn it blue?
I'm an Italian who lives in Italy, so, I don't have a great culture about what colonials used to do, Ammonia is still something you should need to buy and can be pretty harmful to play with, is also more difficult to dose than a solid like baking soda, which is also pretty harmless I found that chamber lye should be the procedure of putting ashes in a bath to obtain a basic solution? Cause, in that case, I wouldn't recommend it either, the water in that case can become very basic and caustic again, here the grandmas did it to make soap, but they knew the techniques to do it and their hands were bad, I wouldn't suggest to do it or To make a video like everyone could do it alone at home, expecially just for a blue ink, were baking soda could be used Ah, pee contains urea, that can form a mild basic solution
@@lorenzoemmepi3302 thats what im talking about. The colonials used to pee in a pot, let it sit out for a few days, and it would turn into what was known as "chamber lye" which could be used for washing clothes.
I really wanted to know what natural ingredients to use to dye T shirts. I'm going to give it a try anyway so thanks for the quantities and the method.
@@MangoSmoothie971 Hi Hannah, basically, no. Having watched your video and a couple of others I came across another one done by a professional team testing how well natural dyeing really worked opposed to that sensational quick tips video. A lot of the results ended up okay but smelling like over stewed cabbage and washing out very quickly so I relented, bought some Dylon Intense Black dye and did it in the washing machine as instructed. Result was perfect, the colour is set fast and not stinky in the slightest!
I was looking for a way to die fabric and when I saw the thumbnail, I assumed that you guys were dying yarn. So when y’all started talking about pasta, I got so confused 🤣
how to a dye cloths? how do u know how to make the dye permanent in a cloth? How do i know what fixative works with cabbage and tumeric and which one works with berries? salt or vinegar? How does the Fixative Process work? Thank u for the tips about green and red from baking soda and purple cabbage and lime juice. That is extremely helpful to know i dont need more than a purple cabbage to get moving now. How will it remain permanent? I am wanting to dye a towel.
Cool I've recently taught myself to crochet and I was gonna make a little shade sail out of cotton kitchen twine but I can only get boring off white so some natural colours would be fab. Most of this stuff I have growing in the garden! I have summer forget me not I was gonna rip out and apparently u can use the root for a red dye!! So I'm gonna have to try all these. My only question would be what can I use as a fixative so the colours don't fade so quick??
if you use these dyes to dye paper, would you recommend waiting for the water to cool before soaking the paper or soak it while it is still hot (trying to dye homemade paper)
I love paper dyeing too! I'd recommend waiting for the water to cool because the heat might damage the paper fibres. For most types of paper, soaking it in colour for longer than a minute I find disintegrate the paper fibres. If I need a stronger colour, I'd do a "recharge". Soak in dye - dry the paper - soak again, for several cycles until I am happy with the intensity of colour.
If you add less baking soda will you get a color somewhere between purple and blue or is it that any baking soda changes the people to only one specific shade of blue?
I tried red cabbage and ginger, with fusili. Although the solution colours were really vibrant, they did not result in colouring the pasta very well (only darker and lighter). I also had a nice greenish colour with mixing cabbage and ginger boiled juice, but did not affect the pasta :(. I also added lime but no colour was translated. Could you suggest why this happened? Maybe it works better with spagetti? :) Do you know how it works with rice?
Why was she squealing over him eating vegetables!?... I certainly hope she eats the fruit or vegetables after she cook some for the dye... That cabbage would be perfect pickled... And I personally like bright yellow.
Assuming you want to create coloured candles, it's worth checking if the colour is oil soluble. For example, alkanet root, which is a botanical-based ingredient, makes a ruby-red colour when dissolved in oil but does not dissolve in water. The vegetable dyes in the video are water soluble, making a nice water-based dyes but not all would work for candles.
Nice video. Fresh turmeric is lovely isn't it?! I have started to try and have a small slice everyday as its good for you. My Indian Mother in Law recommended it to me. So i guess its a common thing to do in India :)
y’all this works amazing for clothing & it’s very earth friendly (it will fade a little but if you start out with white clothes it will look very pastel and gorgeous)
also if you want a very pretty brown colour i recommend using red onion skin or dried avocado skin
@@torrii5333 It fades just after the first wash or does it keep fading?
If you put the dyed fabric in salt water...it will stay for longer
I came in here just for this comment. Thank you. 😊
Ty
If the camera angle was from above it would be better to see what’s going on
Yes u r right 😊
Also if they pronounced the r in tuRmeric it would be awesome.
Guess they figured everyone would know what boiled water would look like.
Exactly.. ! This was more about them instead of the natural dye
Not much is going on. Its a veg in water.... boiling.
Some vegetable dyes I came across.
Orange - Carrot (More vibrant than adding red + yellow)
Green - Spinach (Much more consistent than adding yellow + blue)
Brown - Tea Bags
Thanks!
Wow how about coffee?
Coffee gives a lighter tan. Think of mixing milk with coffee.
Awesome 🙏😍
Thanks!
If grating turmeric was too potent, why not just grate less turmeric? Seems to be an economically viable option!
Chris Hollobaugh Thank you from the expert
I've just used the last of the brambles in the garden to dye some calico cotton for a junk journal project I'm starting. Beautiful results and also used elastic bands to make decorations
Lime = acid = pink
Baking soda = base = blue/teal
Just like the pH of the soil defines the color of hydrangeas!
Dont get it.
I want to get magenta color. Thx
Can we use water colour
@@asiajoelle2760 I don't know how to do magenta
@@chinkibarnwal5812 the pigments for water color? I have no idea. It might depend on what they are made from
Being designer I tried this with fabric and it works sooo cool just perfect
I wasn’t expecting you to dye food. I thought you’d be demoing it on clothes or something. I wonder if this natural dye would stain woods.
I love how he just keeps eating the cabbage
...
That was so funny, he looked so happy eating the all the things instead of using the vegetables for coloring, great synergy between you two!
Brasil: I eat it all
Sounds like you guys are eating some of these veggies fresh for the first time. These happen to be some of the healthiest veggies available. I hope you incorporate them into you normal diet.

Can you store the dyes? How do I store them and how long will they keep for?
I store them in the refrigerator for about a week in a glass jar with a lid. After about a few weeks mold started to grow on top. I dye paper and fabric with mine.
yes! just add in clove and thyme as preservative
Adding an anti-bacterial essential oil should keep it from molding.
All this time I thought the you dyed little yarns hahah but they’re pasta! So cool! Imma eat my pasta like this now
I'm doing this to add new life to some old clothes for my kids
How did it work?
Wow! Cool idea, thanks for sharing 😊
I'm just obsessed with Tumeric powder!
lol it reminded me of babies that put everything in their mouths. Great vid.
As someone who crochets, this seems like an amazing idea... I'd be concerned about the smell on the yarn though.....
No issue with the smell of the yarn, use wool or cotton natural fibres, a mordant helps uptake.
That is sooooo cool that u can get 3 colours from one vegetable/item. Apparently baking soda turns turmeric red too.
I am going to dye my yarn like this 😍

I'd like to know how that works!
Yeah! How did it work?
I can’t wait to try this
It is too Good😍😍
Very helpful thanks 🙏🏽 you can also use turmeric powder to die food, thats the way I do. Way More easier
Awesome thank you!
Is there a way to make the liquid food coloring into a gel coloring? Was asking cause I'm looking to use organic dyes for a baking project I'm doing 😊

Ahhhh ur using it for food colouring. Ok. Still cool tho.
Can I use this dye for tie-dying cloths?

Can also use purple carrot water
Amazing. Can this be used for a wood stain? Maybe mixed with some kerosene and painted on?

TURMERIC rhymes with 'fur' rather than 'tumor'. Nice idea with the cabbage. Thank you!
This is really good info. Thanks
They're so cute! ^w^

Would you eat the sphahetti I imagine kids would love this.
sooooo cool !!!!!
Wow! The colours are so cool
Can we tie dye clothes and stuff with these??? It would be terrible right??
Thankyou so much for this video. I'm looking at Dunn these now for naturally dyed fabrics to develop eco freindly pieces.
Ok you guys are so cool 💡thank you
does this work for dying your hair?!
So cool thanks 🙏🏽
Thank you friends
Okay i knew cabage was purple then turned blue. But I had no Idea it could also turn red!!!
What if you cook pasta in colored liquid from the very beginning without pre-cooking? Will it work?
came here for the tie-dye but stayed for the ASMR...
Nice and natural
Why was she squealing over him eating vegetables!?... I certainly hope she eats the fruit or vegetables after she cook some for the dye... That cabbage would be perfect pickled... And I personally like bright yellow.
How many minutes do you have to boil them
Put it in small squirt bottles and let the kids "paint" their vanilla ice cream 😉
to avoid permanet stains from yellow blend mangoes insted
Hmmm.. I may try on old fabric
OMG so fuuuunnn!! You two are entertaining! So exciting😄 I’m trying it, thank you!
Wow! So cool
Two things, does the dye change the taste of the pasta? Second, you can use this to dye eggs for Easter.
I am wondering if I could use it to dye my hair
So this isn't about fabric?
I watched more than half of a video convinced this is about clothing lol
Love how you guys made it, the colouring and the video making. Loved the blasts, haha, and the 30 min wait. And yeah, feel like a Scientist
Omg I just see pasta.. 30 min in the water 😭 I'm crying, the question is perché?! You kill those spaghetti
Really appreciable
"Natural" baking soda is a chemical btw guys
Salt? Naa sodium chloride
But we're gonna have to wash clothes right ? So, is the dye permanent or temporary because it would be such a bummer if the colour fades after washing
Use a hot iron or toss in the dryer to set the color. But, it will fade over time.
Can I also apply this on my hair?
Please answer this question since our research is all about plant based dyes 🙏
Can I dye bees wax for a candle with these?
this video is much better if you play it on 2 speed
Can i use them to dye my hair ?
So... why are we dyeing pasta? Instead of something interesting like wool or linen?
What I’ve gotten from the comments, is yes you can diy fabric/ clothing/ wool/ cotton with it as long as it’s like natural fibres
Lol can I use this for my hair?
Can this dye be used for clothes?
WAIT LIMES DO THAT?! 😲 😲 😲
Lauren Kelly yeah of course they’re acids
Can we swap out the three cups of water for 3 cups of oil? Like for candles?
Assuming you want to create coloured candles, it's worth checking if the colour is oil soluble. For example, alkanet root, which is a botanical-based ingredient, makes a ruby-red colour when dissolved in oil but does not dissolve in water. The vegetable dyes in the video are water soluble, making a nice water-based dyes but not all would work for candles.
My question is when using food does it add flavor to the foods it’s added too or is the liquid neutral flavored?
Try it!!
Can we safely use this on new born's clothing?
Can we use this dye as hair dye🤔
Thank you guys!
How long will the colours last? Am interested in trying these are bit
ako to mga cutiess!!!!1
How do you deal with the smell that may come?
It's because of the pH level, that's why it turned out color red
Wowww
Thank you.
We can use green cabbage

Do you store at room temperature or refrigerator
