I decided to coffee stain and dab dye with coffee grounds to make it a bit more primitive.
I'm pleased with the results. I decided not to attach the jute around the board but through the hole at the top. I really like how it turned out.
This turned out wonderful! I know you are thrilled with the outcome as I would be too! Congratulations on a stunning finish!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry!! I do like it!
ReplyDeleteThe coffee dying is fun too me but I do hold my breath while I'm doodling with coffee grounds on it at what the results will be. I baked it in the oven this time to dry it as her directions but a tad longer than the 2 minutes. Then steam ironed it. Of course this is DMC threads so if this were specialty overdyed threads I couldn't have done it afterward.
