Instruction
1
Buy ground coffee. Can not spend money on an expensive filet, the taste you appreciate, not necessarily. Take the cheapest (there is a perception that it is good as a dye for fabrics).
2
Pour into the pan 2 liters of water and bring to a boil.
3
Reduce the heat and stir in boiling water 100 grams of ground coffee. The fire need to subtract in order to quickly effervescence foam is not spilled on the stove or on your hands.
4
Remove the pan from the heat and strain the coffeeany solution. The filtered solution is put back on the heat and bring to a boil.
5
Lower it into the boiling coffeesolution any cloth and boil for 10-15 minutes, stirring constantly to evenly distribute the ink along the fabric.
6
Carefully remove the cloth from the pan, allow to cool slightly. Then carefully straighten, fasten pins and then use to hang the fabric on the rope (it is important at this stage to prevent the bending of the fabric, because then the place will fold the darkest of shred).
7
If you want to "marble" the colors, it is strongly crumple the fabric and send it in boiling coffeeany solution (volume of solution must be less than conventional staining to fabric couldn't finish it). Stirring is not necessary. Dry dyed fabric on the radiator or in direct sunlight right into Smeaton. After drying, iron.
Note
If you add in coffee solution for staining of vanilla, cinnamon or other natural spices, dyed cloth is a long time to exude a pleasant aroma.
Useful advice
Can substitute ground instant coffee (although it will turn out more expensive). The staining procedure is similar to the option with ground coffee.
The time of boiling the fabric in the coffee solution can increase or decrease depending on what shade you want to obtain pale beige or dark brown.
If your cloths intended for painting, very small, decrease the amount of water and coffee at your discretion. If you are already in the process of boiling you see that the solution is pasty, add the instant coffee. Conversely, if the solution turned out to be, in your opinion, is very dark, add water.
After boiling you can just rinse the cloth in cold water. Of course, part of the dye thus washed away, but you will see the final color of the fabric, which during subsequent washings soft powders shedding will not. But usually craftswomen do not rinse the fabric after dyeing.
