Craftwork & Fabric Project Guides

Did you know you could dye Easter eggs with Rit Dye? And, by using different techniques you can create all different textured looks! Rit Dye is nontoxic but we recommend that you use these eggs for decorative purposes only. To get started, make your dye baths. Put one cut of boiling water, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 3-6 teaspoons of whatever dye colors you want in a dish.

Looking for a fun Easter craft to do with the kids? Or are you looking for egg hunt goody bags? Look no further! These three super easy DIY goody bags are a great way to decorate for the holidays, are inexpensive, and can be used again and again.

It's time to start decorating for Easter! Here are some easy Easter DIY projects that are inexpensive and only take about a half an hour to throw together.

If you've got a faded pair of jeans that you want to revive, why not dye them? I'm using Black Dylon Permanent Dye for one pair and Denim Blue Rit All-Purpose Dye for another pair. You can use either type of dye for both denim blue and black. You can also try different colors for unique looks.

Marbling's been around for centuries. It mimics a natural design that's found in stone (or a nice rib eye). You've probably seen the marbling technique used on things like end papers in a book, or in a stationary store. But did you know that you can marble fabric, too? I'm going to be using liquid Rit Dye and shaving cream to deck out some plain white pillowcases.

Fabric dye isn't just for fabric. You can use Rit dye to stain wood and wicker as well. This adds color without covering the grain of the wood. The finish has greater texture and dimension than paint. Today, I'm staining an unfinished set of drawers.

Halloween is such a fun time of year to decorate or make your own costumes. In this tutorial I decided to make simple, quick, and cute projects that involve no sewing what-so-ever. Try them out and let us know how they turned out!

Make a beautiful bouquet of tulips that will last forever! These no sew fabric flowers are perfect for a Mother's Day gift or other special present. I just got a Cricut and was excited to try it out with this project. And it didn't disappoint! But you can definitely do it with good old scissors too.

Over the years, we have experimented with many different methods of dying fabric. All of which yielded beautiful results, but usually required a decent amount of work leading up to and during the dying process. But what if you want a nice all over dye without the fuss? I knew that RIT dye could be used in the washing machine but I had never tried it for myself, until today, and I am so glad that I did. The overall color was brilliantly saturated, and even.

After a fun night at the arcade, I came home with a very cool night light that was plastic but was in the shape of a balloon animal and as I sat looking at him in all his cuteness I thought – what if I made a balloon animal that was actually a stuffed animal. These guys are not only a great gift for birthdays, baby showers, or holidays but also are super fun to make and loved by adults and children alike. In this tutorial I will show you how to make a dog but if you want to make any other animals, there are tons of videos online about making balloon animals, just use the same tie method every time they twist the balloon, we found a tutorial for an elephant, dinosaur, and added a unicorn horn to a dog for this cute little guy.
