Today I did some eucalyptus dye tests. It smells so amazing when its boiling!! The color came out light brown, nothing very dramatic. So I added a few spoonfulls of alum to the dye bath and I also added a “tea bag” of honey locust seed pods to punch up the color. The 3 tests I made were the eucalyptus dye with added iron, added soda ash, and added lemon juice to see how changing the Ph shifts the color.
