My first attempt was creating a dye using avocado pits, and when I discovered the beautiful yet unpredictable results, I was hooked. After noticing I had accumulated a number of fabric and paper scraps, as well as odd lengths of ribbon and string, I decided it to was time to once again dive into the world of natural dyes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis time I turned to red cabbage. I chopped up what was left in my refrigerator crisper, put it in a stockpot, adding a bit of white vinegar, and filled the pot with water. I brought the water to a boil, covered it with a lid, and then turned it down to simmer for several hours. When I was happy with the color, I turned off the heat, removed the cabbage from the water, and added the fabric and paper scraps, and ribbon and string to the dye bath. I let this sit overnight and then removed the materials from the dye and placed them on a towel to thoroughly dye.

I knew they would be perfect for wrapping some handmade bath bombs. To do this, I placed a bath bomb in the center of a dyed filter, gathered the filter edges around the bath bomb, and secured it with twine. To finish I tucked small flowers behind the twine. If you’ve been curious about the world of natural dyes, I urge you to give it a try. You won’t regret it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Free Projects","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45452542247063,"sku":"PROJ-1346","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/5546\/3319\/files\/PROJ-1346__12872.1697820203.1280.1280.jpg?v=1746794301","url":"https:\/\/stampington.live\/products\/naturally-dyed-bath-bomb-packaging","provider":"Stampington \u0026 Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
