Does dying lace black actually work?
Hey everyone, I’m looking to use some black lace for trimming some headpieces, dresses, and skirts.
I found that I could only buy NYLON black lace, however what I would rather use is soft cotton lace. But I’m worried that the black dye I have will in fact turn the lace grey.
I have a selection of white eyelet lace like in this pic
As well as beading lace like in this pic
And what appears to be cluny like in this pic
I bought one tin of black dylon cold water dye and two cold fix sachets. I weighed the lace and it is only about 150grams. The dye instructions state that it will dye up to 250g of fabric.
Should I worry that the lace will go grey? I read somewhere that eyelet lace will not dye completely as the embroidery threads are polyester, not cotton like the lace.
Thanks for your help!
i’ve heard the same. i say don’t risk it. if you have a choice of buying already black lace, i would do that. you can try with the other lace, but it would be easier to just buy lace that is already the color you want
