I boiled a couple quarts of water in a big pot and added the tea bag and let it steep for about 10 minutes. |
I added the fabric into the "tea" and let it boil for a few minutes and then turned it down to simmer. |
I let it simmer for a couple of hours. You can see here that the vines are no longer white. |
I rinsed out the tea in cold water and washed and dried the fabric. I really like how it turned out with the vines now a cream color and the light part of the ombre fabric is not so pink. |

The color change looks great. I sometimes use tea for dyeing too, gives the fabric a nice look.
That's a great tip! A natural solution, too!
