Description:

There are a lot (and I do mean a LOT) of YouTube tutorials on tea- and coffee-dyeing. HERE is a quick one!

So . . . for this swap you'l have 2 partners and you'll send each partner 3 pieces of coffee-dyed paper. Please use 3 different types of paper and crinkle one of them. Example: 1 piece printer paper; 1 book page; 1 piece analysis pad paper--whatever you've got will be fine. Try to send pieces that measure 6" square (or larger).

Recently, I coffee-dyed some papers and put paper towels between the sheets when they were still wet. The towels had a LOVELY pattern on them which came through on some of the sheets! Not a requirement--just sharing if you'd like to try.

So it's 2 each of 3 different papers for a total of 6 papers sent to 2 partners (1 of each type to each partner).

These are so nice for junk journals, backgrounds for stamping, etc.

Let's meet at the mailbox for coffee!

I created some coffee-dyed paper last night and had a wonderful 'accident.' I put the paper on top of a pizza pan with holes in the bottom for drying. After the paper dried, I turned it over and found polka dots on the underside of the paper! They're not perfect but a lovely touch in the corners--wherever the paper touched the holes. Give it a try!

What is analysis pad paper ?

Oh . . . it's graph-type paper or ledger-type paper

Yes, you may use any paper you like.
