Invite your fabric over for a cup of tea :D
I was really in the mood for making some fabric flowers, but I only had some very white jersey knit, winch doesn't look that classy. So I decided to give tea dyeing it a go. I have tried on one ocation before and it made the cotton look old and more like vintage linen.
This s super easy and cheap. And you can do it with any old boring t-shirt you have lying around

Step 2
Then you must find yourself some teabags. I used Black tea since it will give of a beige colour. But from what I have gathered other types of leaves give different colours.
Black Tea: Beige.
Berry Teas: Light pink/purple.
Green Tea: Green-ish yellowIt would be cool to mix and match your dye to see what you get.
And when you wash it, try and was it on a setting that is mild to fabric.
