Natural Pink Dyes
Pink Camellia
Creating a dye bath of pink or red camellia with lemon and salt will create a strong pink or magenta dye. You can experiment with other bloom colour or mix pinks and reds to create a range of dye colours and hues.
Avacado pits
Place your avocado pits and skins in the pot and fill with water. Bring to a boil and turn down the heat to a simmer. Let simmer for one hour. Your water should change color and you can leave them in longer/shorter depending on the shade you want.
Roses And Lavender
To achieve a brilliant pink dye, a combination of pink or red rose petals and purple lavender is needed. Combined with lemon juice and hot water this will create a lovely pink dye bath. The flowers can be dried or fresh.
