Members Southernleather Posted June 6, 2014 Members Report Posted June 6, 2014 Hi there, I am new to the forum and looking for some expert advice! I am currently working on a couple of little veg tan cases and would like to experiment with dyeing them pastel colours like pinks, blues, greens etc. I have seen this done and know it is possible but not sure where to source the dye (I am in the UK). Would rather not have to mix colours Any help greatly appreciated! Quote
Members DavidL Posted June 6, 2014 Members Report Posted June 6, 2014 You could dye the leather with spices, boiled dark coffee and natural dyes. Someone with more knowledge may be able to tell you how to get the colours to penetrate deep and last. Quote
Members whipstitchwallets Posted June 12, 2014 Members Report Posted June 12, 2014 I have gotten great pastel tones by watering down fiebing spirit based dye Quote
