More skull art by me!!

@canusernamebemyusername whoa 🤯 sounds so awesome!! Maybe I’ll try that with some bones 🦴 🤔

I also want to try dying with indigo because it leaves such a beautiful brilliant blue color. I’ve seen some people do bone staining with it and it comes out amazing!!

@SW-User I actually have some old indigo root somewhere but I never could get it to take to cloth. Which was most likely a cloth or mordant issue. But it is a very pretty blue:)
I also saw some wood workers use red onions to make a dye. It also depends on the wood too. Some can come out blotchy just due to grain and density of the wood. Oak tends to be a very good wood for dying though. It's very consistent. Pine is I have found temperamental. Plus it has a underlying yellow tone that can tint a dye.

@canusernamebemyusername i’ve heard about using onion skins before but I didn’t realize people were using these techniques on wood as well!!

There are also mushrooms that people use for dyes as well. They’re called dyer’s polypore. I dyed a scarf once with some

@SW-User I'd never heard of the mushrooms. The outcomes remind me of turmeric dyes. At least the yellow ones. Cook def know about turmeric staining stuff. lol
But yeah I was wanting something less toxic than a commercial dye so I tried learning some more organic ways of staining with just stuff I found around the house.

@canusernamebemyusername yes 🙌 I’m all about that too! Less toxic and more organic!! Awesome 👏

@SW-User I use enough chemicals in life as it is:P So if I can find something just as good but less harmful I'll use that.
