Hand dyed muslin roses...

 

Hand dye a length of muslin by using half as much dye as recommended on the packet (or even less for a baby pastel shade) in a bucket of hot tap water.

 

Immerse the muslin for just 20 seconds, remove, and drip dry.

 

Cut into 1 metre lengths.

 

Fold strips in half lengthwise.

 

Roll your rose as per these instructions.

 

Secure with glue or a couple of stitches.

 

 

Use as a hair ornament, wrist corsage, brooch or gift embellishment.
