Can you dye with Tjhoko Paint?

We haven’t actively used the paint to dye with,

but we do have a stockist that does it on natural fabrics so it can be done.  Best is to always do a test run first and rather use natural fabrics than synthetic fabrics.

This is how she does it:

• In a basin or bowl, pour lukewarm water and add the paint colour of your choice, as much as what is needed to get the desired colour.
• The fabric is placed in the water and stirred every 1/2hr over a 2-6 hr period until the fabric is dyed evenly.
• Remove from water and allow to dry.
• Iron the fabric
• Care Instructions: hand wash in cold water.
• Fabric should be a natural woven texture and not synthetic.

We do suggest you try a small piece first.
