I had a jar of avocado skin dye in the fridge and decided to try dyeing some beads with it. The beads were soaked in soya milk twice and left for about a week before dyeing.
Then the beads were left in a simmering dye pot for a while, then left for 24 hours in the dye as it cooled.
Once dry, the beads were oiled with flaxseed oil to protect them and help seal in the colour. The beads have such an intense colour and actually look like they are glowing. It was definitely a successful experiment!
