Doilies are great for using in projects, but sometimes the whiteness of them can make them look too-new, through tea dying you can give them an air of antiquity! This DIY was also featured on my blog.

Doilies are great for using in projects, but sometimes the whiteness of them can make them look too-new, through tea dying you can give them an air of antiquity! This DIY was also featured on my blog.

Instructions

  1. Small tdd 2 copy

    Gather materials! You will need more tea bags depending on how dark you want your doilies. I used four for two small doilies and they came out moderately dark.

  2. Small tdd 3

    Place tea bags and doilies in container and cover with hot water. The longer you leave them the darker they get, I left them in for 20 minutes. Leave somewhere for a couple of hours to dry.
