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!

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Crocheted Doilies
  • Boiling Water
  • Container
  • 2 Tea Bags

Steps (2 steps, 22 minutes)

  1. 1

    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. 2

    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.
