Instructions:
- Cover work area with plastic table cover and have paper towels handy to protect against any possible spills. Gather supplies.
- Wash and dry napkins to remove any finishes that may interfere with dye absorption.
- Using a small paintbrush with bleach, carefully paint spiderweb pattern as desired.
- Wash napkins thoroughly to stop bleaching agent. Once washed, set aside.
- Fill Stainless Steel Sink or Plastic Container with 3 gallons of hot water. The water should ideally be 140ºF. If tap water is not hot enough, heat water on the stove and add to the dyebath.
- Add one bottle of well-shaken Neon Green dye (or whichever color you prefer) into dyebath.
- To enhance the color, add one cup of salt. Add 1 teaspoon of liquid dish detergent to help promote level dyeing. Stir well.
- Test color by dipping a paper towel into the dyebath. If color is too light, add more dye; if color is too dark, add more water.
- Immerse bleached napkins in dyebath. Stir slowly and continuously for 10-20 minutes or until desired color is achieved.
- When desired color is achieved over the bleached areas, remove from dyebath. The dyed area will appear darker when wet and will dry lighter. Squeeze out excess dye.
- We recommend using Rit ColorStay Dye Fixative immediately after dyeing and before washing to enhance color, increase color retention and prevent dye from bleeding. Follow package instructions.
- Rinse in cool water until the water runs clear.
- Wash in warm water with a mild detergent, rinse and dry.
