Here’s what the Jacquard website says about Dye-Na-Flow:
“This high chroma, highly transparent liquid fabric paint is permanent on any porous or semi-porous surface, including natural and synthetic fabrics, leather and wood. In many ways, it simulates a true dye: Dye-Na-Flow spreads on fabric until it is thoroughly absorbed and even, sinking into the fibers like a dye instead of sitting on the surface like thicker paints and inks. The colors are super vibrant & washfast and will not change the feel of the fabric, making it a powerful tool whenever true dyes are impractical. A uniquely versatile fluid acrylic, Dye-Na-Flow is used for a diverse range of applications, from silk painting to wood staining.”
I love that this product flows so easily through the tea bag. Unlike acrylic paint which is thick, Dye-Na-Flow spreads quickly through the fibers of the tea bag and maintains its color saturation. And it’s permanent with dry. I still like to press my tea bags, though.
This short video shows how I use Dye-Na-Flow to put strong color on my tea bags. It’s a refreshing change to my usual rusty, grungy style.
If you haven’t tried Dye-Na-Flow, go ahead and give a small kit of the tiny bottles a try. You’ll be amazed at how beautiful the color blends on a tea bag.
Here are the products and tools I use to add this color:
Clean water in spritzer bottle
Piece of clean glass big enough to hold the tea bag
Rusted or plain clean tea bag
Wooden skewer
Hair dryer
Optional: hair dryer and iron
