Rainbow Dyed Crochet Tablecloth

Posted on 25/08/2018 by Aixie

Tie Dye Pillow Slips, PANTONE colour of the year and January Bed Post.

Posted on 02/01/2018 by Aixie

I don’t use purple a lot in my decorating. The only place it tends to appear is in my bedroom and it’s not a colour I feel really comfortable with. But guess what the PANTONE colour of the year for … Continue reading →

Posted on 02/12/2017 by Aixie

I have vast quantities of pretty vintage lace doilies, and I keep buying more without the faintest idea what I’m going to do with them. But I came across a crochet-wrapped stone on instagram and realised I might be able … Continue reading →

Tie Dye Tea Towels

Posted on 24/02/2017 by Aixie

I’ve always been a hippie. That probably comes as no surprise to you readers, but there’s no getting away from it. I love gypsy skirts, crochet vests, beads, brass bangles, Indian textiles and tie dye. Lots of tie dye in … Continue reading →

Indigo Obsessions

Posted on 10/10/2015 by Aixie

Tie Dye Duna Cover

Posted on 05/10/2014 by Aixie

Well, second time lucky I managed to rescue my duna cover! The first time around, I followed the directions on the box of dyes, I rubber-banded, squirted, coloured, covered, waited, and then washed. Big mistake. The directions on the box … Continue reading →

Posted on 04/10/2014 by Aixie

One of my favourite things to do on a sunny Spring Saturday is play around with some tie dyeing. Today was no exception! It really did involve a lot of fabric, water and messy dye. Oh, and fun! I played … Continue reading →

A few months ago I was looking through my linen press and pulled out a large, white cotton lace tablecloth. Slightly discoloured, and with a small rust stain on it, I decided a dye bath was in order. Teal blue. … Continue reading →
