    **Additional points to mention for clarification: Australia measuring cups, I am told are different to American measuring cups. I use metric cups of water, so you may need to google for the conversation equivalency in your region. I am not sure if this is helpful nor how accurate this is but 1 metric cup is 237ml but this may vary. I suggest a cup that you use for measuring your cooking recipes and stick with that regardless of what country you reside in.

    Thanks for a very informative video! Just to share a couple of ideas: I sometimes place the border stencils (tall and slim stencils) to the right or left of the pages to get a ' blank but colored' center writing area... I have also used this method to dye pages in other colors using diluted food dyes ( like easter egg dyes) - worked well, gote clear but soft colors. And, adding a dash of mica powder can also make some pretty softly blingy pabes... 😊

    Beautiful papers!! People might not think about plastic placemats for the kitchen table. Before I finally found all of my plastic table cloths, I found gorgeous placemats. They’re usually out at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I have a LOT of gold, red and white ones. Some are large round ones and others are rectangular shaped. I love my place mats and use them all the time when dying papers. ❤❤

    Thank you for all the information and your video to showing how you achieved these gorgeous dyed results. There are so many ways to dye papers that I like to watch different videos to see their special tips and take from them what I find useful or what method I might want to give a try with. Your process looks like I could get good results with so I’m hoping to give it a try. I really like your mix of the coffee and tea together because I don’t like the deep brown from coffee but the tea can’t come out quite yellow. I’ve been thinking of mixing them too and now your video has confirmed my hunch to give that a try. I’m in the US and I’ve also seen where vinyl placemats or table runners with an open weave design can be used like the plastic lace as well. I appreciate all your explanations and video tutorial and now I have a few more tips to make my paper dyeing even more successful. Happy crafting! 😊

    • @medievalmirage
      @medievalmirage  Před 12 dny +1

      Hi Debbie, thank you so much for your lovely comments and kind words. Regarding your question, the papers remain in the tray and they dry in the tray. It is true that drying time is slow this way, but in summer the tray can be left outside and brought in at night and in winter, safely place the tray in directional heat and as the top layers dry, they pull away from the rest of the papers in the tray, you peel those pieces off and stack those dry pieces on your craft table, and the same will happen to the next layers. So continue to follow that process until the air drying process is completed. Hope that helps. Thanks again for watching and for being so supportive. Best wishes.

      Thanks so much for your sweet words and support. Yes, I have used lace for my coffee/tea staining but it was a while ago. Sometimes it works sometimes not, it depends on the design of the lace. Lace trims work best especially if they have defined perforation. The great thing is, you get aged vintage looking lace and coffee stained papers at the same time. Thanks again for your thoughts and suggestions. Best wishes with appreciation.

      Hi there, thanks so much for your kind comments and your suggestion. I appreciate your input. It is true that some people do use baking soda, but I never have.

    • @medievalmirage
      @medievalmirage  Před 12 dny +1

      Hi there, thanks for your question. The papers remain in the tray and they dry in the tray. It is true that drying time is slow this way, but in summer the tray can be left outside and brought in at night and in winter, safely place the tray in directional heat and as the top layers dry, they pull away from the rest of the papers in the tray, you peel those pieces off and stack those dry pieces on your craft table, and the same will happen to the next layers. So continue to follow that process until the air drying process is completed. Hope that helps. Thank you.

      Hi LegoStar. Thanks for your questions. The coffee/tea dyed papers remain in the tray to dry. In summer, I take the tray outside and bring it in at night, it can take one to two days to dry this way. In winter, inside a heated room, the papers in the tray can take up to 3 days to dry. I peel off the papers that are dry at the top of tray and continue that process, until they are all dry. I never use an oven. So yes, coffee stain the papers laying stencils in between and that is it. They sit in the tray until they air dry. I will keep your suggestion in mind for next time. Thank you.

    Bonjour! I would love to try this process, but I am sadly allergic to coffee. Even the smell is nauseating to me. Have you tried dyeing the papers using alcohol inks?

    • @medievalmirage
      @medievalmirage  Před 12 dny

      Bonjour!! Lovely to have you join in watching this video. Thank you so much for your kind comments. I am sorry you are allergic to coffee. The good new is, that you do not have to use coffee at all! Use only tea and you can make a light brew or dark brew, or both. You can use the dark brew in the spray bottle and light brew in the dipping tray. You will still get great results or you can add a bit of re-inkers. The ones I like are “Coffee” by Ranger or Ranger's “Vintage Photo” to add an imitation coffee colour. But please be careful as the ink is highly saturated only add a single drop at a time, and build the colour to your preference slowly. Keep doing tests with strips of white paper to get the right colour and tone for you. Don't forget to write down the amount you put in, how many teabags, how much water and if using re-inkers how many drops. I hope that helps. Alcohol inks work in such a unique way and thus I haven't gone down that path...but maybe one day. Thanks again with best wishes.

  • @ForeverLuminous

    Beautiful stained paper! I use stencils too! However, I dry halfway in my oven, with very low heat, with the oven door open, and for 5 min. I remove the stencil and let the paper finish drying and it works well. I also watch over my new stencils to make sure they can tolerate the heat. I'm sorry if you explain why, but I can't finish watching, is there a reason to dip the in-between pages other than just getting ghost-like prints? Would putting say baking paper in between prevent the need for 4-5 paper if someone didn't have that many to use? Thank you.

Regarding your question, where i was filming this video, I didn't have much bench space, also the tray I was using wasn't very deep and as I didn't want to make a mess and get liquid everywhere, I only added a bit of the brew in the dipping tray. The blue dye I used was actually watered downed acrylic paint. Thanks again for your encouragement. It means a lot. Best wishes.

    • @831Miranda
      @831Miranda Před 9 dny +1

      Drying time will vary 😅 depends on your paper thickness, how much liquid is in the tray, and of course local air temperatures. If you have the patience to leave them in the tray they will get a better imprint... you can place them out in the sun (the whole tray) until they dry fully or partially ‐ your call as to the final effect you are going for... the earlier you ‐ very carefully - separate the pages, the lighter the imprint will be. You can also place the tray in an oven at very low temperature and check it back often Removing pages as they dry... This is not an exact science... ❤
