I'm pretty chuffed with meself I dyed the cushions on the conservatory furniture yesterday from cream to brown. Cream wasn't the most practical of colours, especially now Molly's here so it was time for a change. I've never home dyed anything before but they've come out really well

 

There's some pics of my chilli, pepper and strawberry seedlings and a bit of chickenalia too

That looks lovely - where did you get your chickenalia?

[chelsea]

Really nice

 

You have such a clean and tidy house Poet

[Blackrocksrock]

They look really professional and practical rather than cream!. You have 3 things the same as I have it that photo - the green propogator, the roundtuit, and the soapstone ornament! - isnt life funny.

 

 

Also its a very very tidy house!!

[Guest]

not as tidy as you guys think, who said the camera never lies

 

The chickenalia is from my local garden centre

 

...knew it wouldn't take madam long! The reason I dyed the cushions!!!!

Your doggy is lovely! ...and the cushions look miles better in their new colour anyway I need a total revamp of my sitting room, with all the pets we have the most destructive one is a 7 year old little male homo-sapiens (Perhaps I wait until he gets a bit more 'house-trained' before I invest my time and money on a new sitting room... )

 

Unfortunately what was going to be my lovely conservatory/study is now the office/homework room/lovebird paradise and occasionally the painting studio... and where I spend most of the time when I'm at home (on the forum!)

They look good and the dye's come out really evenly!

[Lesley]

They do look good - and much more dog friendly!

[Guest]

thanks I was worried about not getting an even finish so I followed the instructions to the letter and put exactly the same amount of cushion covers in each time and didn't overload the machine etc.

 

It takes flippin' ages though! You have to wash the cushions then put them on another cycle with the dye and the salt then wash them again and there were 2 loads to do. I think it took 6 hours all together just to dye them, not including drying and ironing!
