I've heard of people using Cool Aid to dye fabric before and I woudn't mind giving it a try as your piece looks like it's come up quite well, though I'm not sure if Cool aid is sold in Australia as I've never seen it.

Interesting!

I once had a friend who covered the gray in her deep chestnut colored hair with a paste of black cherry and grape Kool-Aide. Worked slick, and was cheaper than dirt compared to buying commerical hair dye.
