ha! but I thought your Brillo description was perfect .... I had visualizations of teeny-tiny-itty-bitty people in there with scrubbing away with little brillos!!

Any further comments about the tea dying etc.?

If you are overdyeing with Procion MX dyes, it is NOT the Reytayne that "sets" these dyes, as mentioned as per Paper Princess. Procion dyes are set with soda ash. If you are thinking of dyeing/overdyeing, a good source is Paula Burch's website. She has a lot of information. Good luck.
