I got loose black tea from the Co-op this morning and have been soaking it all day.
This evening, using a paintbrush I tested it out to see how dark it is and much it bleeds.
The test pieces below are still wet. The tea staining is pretty dark right now, but it will lighten up as it dries. I’m expecting I’ll have to give it a few coats. I’ll know more tomorrow.
You are amazing, I would have never thought to stain the face and hands with tea and it looks so natural.
Thank Uta. 🙂
These test pieces might be interesting in a quilt of their own.
Oh, that’s a good idea Kathryn.
Glad you like it Maria.
