I "tea dyed" my wedding dress, it turned out exactly how I envisioned it! I love dyeing with natural things, we dyed some muslin with berries and it really turned out beautiful, Beets work nice and bark from walnut shells, not sure if that is what it is called but it is not the shell but the stuff around the outside of shell. Just remember to wear gloves as you can "dye" your hands if not careful~ would love to see your doilies, pictures??

Some of them are stained and some aren't as white as others, etc. so I decided to tea dye some of them...have heard about it being done but never tried it before. Definitely makes them look more vintage and more like they "belong" together
