Hey, friends! I am blown away and so incredibly thankful for all your comments! I want to address *TWO* *IMPORTANT* *THINGS* 1) *Safety* *first!* Always make sure that there is a proper *AIR* *FLOW* to the back side of your box fan. My box fan has *legs* which is why it does not lay flat on the floor (you can see in the video that it is tilted forward). The legs prevent it from sitting flush to the floor. If your fan is completely flat, then you would need to *raise* the fan from the floor to ensure the proper *air* *flow* . You could place it on two stacks of books or two boxes or place it between two chairs. I also have this information noted in the *Video* *Description* . As always, please exercise common sense and caution, and ensure that you use your household items properly and in a safe manner. *Please* *refer* *to* *your* *item's* *manual* if you have any doubts or questions. *Please* *do* *not* *leave* *your* *electric* *items* *unattended* 2) You don’t necessarily need to have a box fan for this project! If you have one of the smaller table-top or a clip-on fans - those will work too! It will take a bit longer to dry, but you will still avoid using the oven! 😉 I absolutely LOVE it that we are exchanging coffee dying tips in the comments section, so that we all can share our favorite techniques and learn from each other! I love hearing your ideas, so please KEEP THEM COMING! Have an amazing day and Happy crafting!! 🤗 ☕💖

I love coffee dyed paper with lace designs. I did it twice than realized I ain’t got no time for this mess 😂. So I started purchasing it. Now I ain’t got no money for this mess 😂 so absolutely this is the way to go to achieve the look and feel without the time, money, and mess. 😊
Excellent idea with the box fan. What I do sometimes with a stack of paper is to put my stencils between each sheet (or every other) during the drying process. That way, when they’re all dry, the stencils are already done….!!!!! If you want to amp it up a bit, use your spray ink lightly on the stencils once you’ve laid them down and it’s even more evident
I let my stack dry by turning it once every few hours. It takes a couple seconds here and there. Also, I get designs on most pages by using stencils and a spray bottle with coffee in it. Just lay the paper down then the stencil. Spray it. Lay another piece of paper down then gently rub it. Peel the layers apart to get 2 prints. Then make a stack.
(j'ai fait traduire mon message écrit précédement ) . Good evening from the South of France. Thank you for this well explained method. I share with you another method for lazy people. You take a plastic tray with edges, large enough for A4 format. (You can protect your tray with cling film). You put coffee in this tray. You place your leaves (new or used or pieces, leftover cuttings) on the coffee you try to put them in a staggered manner and not one on top of the other well aligned. You add coffee on top of your leaves every 5 to 6 leaves. You move your tray so that all the leaves are soaked; In short, you do this with the number of leaves you want to make or the quantity of coffee you have. Between each sheet you can put stencils, objects, plant leaves, screws, grids, various shapes which will leave imprints (this avoids making decorations afterwards with ink...saving time) you leave all the leaves in the tray optionally you can turn over the first leaves to put them last (the first will be the last so all the leaves will have coffee. let the whole thing rest according to the density of coffee shade that you want. No risk for the leaves will not degrade...even if they are "glued" together. Do not touch them. When they are dry they will separate. If there is coffee left in your tray after letting it "rest for the color desired 10 minutes or less or more "you empty the surplus leaving the sheets in the tray. you leave the whole (sheet and stencil) to dry (outside if the weather permits) near a radiator, or fireplace in winter. In total you will need 10 minutes maximum for preparation. No need for a brush. No need for ink. When your leaves are dry they will have a pretty, more vintage edge. some will have spots, bubbles, some will look "burned". (Be careful with stencils, the sheets will take longer to dry since the stencils are plastic) I use this method in the evening before going to bed in winter near the radiator heating and the next day I discover the magic. .It only takes up the space on your tray; .coffee can be replaced by green or black tea, colored crepe papers soaked in water, curry, beetroot, ivy, etc. etc. HAVE FUN . Looking forward to sharing. Sylvie B
Thank you so much for watching and for sharing your wonderful technique, Sylvie! I'm intrigued! I especially like the idea of using crepe paper for colors and leaves for imprints. I want to try this. How long does it take for this paper to dry indoors? Are we talking overnight or does it take days? Thank you! 😊
@@chasingpaper2022 for crepe paper, infuse pieces in a pot with water; the water will color. this water you put it in the tray as for the coffee tincture; same technique; you can let the white sheets take the color that suits you or even mix the colors. Drain excess water from the tray; leave the leaves in the tray to dry; near a fireplace or outdoor radiator; the more leaves there are, the longer the time will be; in front of a radiator in less than an hour it's dry for (5 to 6 sheets without doing anything) we have pretty colors; it's like doing "alchemy"; I hope i was clear ; You can use your method with crepe paper; remember to put stencils in between during the "coloring" you will have pretty patterns. good discovery; best wishes .

Coffee/tea dying paper is something I dislike doing so much, that I’ve been buying it instead. It took hours of standing and hours of paper covering every surface of my kitchen while drying. Obviously my technique was all wrong. Using the fan in this way is brilliant, and stacking the papers is so much better than laying individual sheets everywhere for 12 hours. Thank you! I can definitely do this method. 😊 ( new subbie!)
That's awesome! Thank you so much for subbing! 😊 I'm so glad you are here! 🤗 So happy you like this project and I can't wait to share more fun projects with you! 😊✨💕
I've been putting off coffee dying paper...I am somewhat of a beginner, and the other tutorials intimidated me. I love how you explained every step so wonderfully, I am going to do this technique today, copy paper and going to try this with index cards also. Thanks so much for sharing this ❤ hugs from South Florida ♥️
That’s awesome! Thank you so much! 😊Glad you will give this a try! I believe humidity is higher in Florida, so it may take just a little bit longer to dry. But I’m sure you’ll still like this process! Happy crafting! 🤗💫🌺
I did this today!! I have so many lovely dyed papers now. I did use a strong tea solution because I prefer the scent more than coffee. Did a few stencils while drying also. Most of them came out great. I am blessed to have our whole basement as my creative space. So once my papers were about half dry using the box fan, I did spread them out to dry. I also made a few blue tinted pages. Tip for that: reinkers mixed in water work better than acylic paint. Thank you for this game changing video!
Wonderful! So glad you tried it out with great results! Great tip on using reinkers! I usually use water with a few drops of watercolors for my color tinted papers. Thank you for sharing! 😊👍☕✨
@@jennifers8843 Yes, absolutely! It does need to have a good airflow. My fan has legs, so it’s not flat and gets plenty of air. I also addressed this in the video description and in the pinned comment on top. Thank you for watching! 👍
I have been known to put my papers in the clothes dryer. Lol, they will need ironing afterwards. when I made handmade papers I would press each piece onto the sliding glass door to dry, nice and flat.
The tumble dryer??? Seriously? Not when they're at the soggy stage or they'd fall to pieces wouldn't they? I never thought of the tumble dryer..... explanation please! 😁😁😁
Yeah, don't put them in soggy, partially wet. They dry really fast in the tumbler, they separate themselves. Really saves time.but like I said they'll need to be ironed. @@tamielizabethallaway2413
One easy way that I make coffee dyed papers is to make a batch of instant coffee, put in a spray bottle and spray it on copy paper. Let it set outside until dried and that's it. I love the prints on these papers however, and that is something I want to try. Thank you so much for sharing your techniques and ideas. Love them all.
This is THE best "coffee stain"/hack tutorial I have ever seen...and I've watched a LOT.😁 I have a disability w/chronic pain. Coffee & tea staining is such a chore. But it's a "must have". I have been using the "paint on" technique. But just stacking them on top of layers of paper towels in a large baking sheet. I have to monitor them, flipping the stacks, exposing the sheets in the middle, rearranging them, on & on...for days.😳 I don't have a box fan. But I do have several drying racks that stack...and a standing fan. The inks & stencils as well!🤗 Ty so much!!💗💗💗
I do very similar. I have a clothes drying rack with several drying bars on top, so I place my box fan face down on it to dry everything. I also use the cooling racks balanced across the lower beams to stack the papers on. If you only need a few, you can drape them individually over the bars, and they dry in only a few minutes! I did that when I dyed with Kool-Aid to make colorful journal pages.😁
Wish I still had my box fan! But will improvise because that’s what junk journalers do! Wish I had radiators in my house like when I was a child! Thanks for sharing! Was happy when I saw a video of yours in my feed😊
Thank you so much, Cindy! 🤗 You don't even have to have a box fan, any fan will do! 😉 May take a bit longer to dry, though 😅 Hope you are having a great week! 😊🌸✨
Thanks, Sophie!😊Whatever works best for you! Just wanted to mention that you don’t necessarily have to have a box fan! If you have one of the smaller tabletop or a clip-on fans, it will work too! Just place your fan on the table facing up and prop your cooling rack on two stacks of books over the fan. It will take a bit longer to dry, but will allow you to avoid using the oven 😉 Happy crafting! 🤗 ☕️💕
This is quite wonderful!! We live in PA, so doing this outside right now is not doable, like you said. This is a great alternative. And I love the idea of using stencils! I've never had good luck with doilies and plastic tablecloths. Thank you for sharing!
I also use a fan and racks because I only have the top of my washing machine to dry paper on. I don't stack mine and I don't use a box fan though. I lay 4 single sheets (2 on each rack), usually with a stencil on top of each and then I point my little desk fan right on them. All four sheets will be dry in about 10 minutes and then I dip 4 more sheets in coffee, cover with a stencil and put them on the rack in front of the fan. My washer is in the kitchen and so is my crafting area so it's easy enough to keep an eye on the paper's progress and to make more when a batch drys. I use a hair straightener or my laminating machine (with no plastic pouch) to iron my paper. I'm anxious to try stacking my papers like you do to see if it is faster than my method. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and happy crafting!
Amazing! I watched a video of how to dye paper with the soaking method and was thouroughly discouraged at how much work it was! I am SO ready to try this now! I don't think I ever would have tried the soaking method. WAY TOO much work! Also love, love, love the stenciling hack! You're ingenious!
Thank you so much, Laurie! I truly appreciate it! ❤ So glad that you liked the video and even got inspired to give it a try! Enjoy!! Happy crafting! 🤗🌺💕
Thank you for sharing this technique! I’m in the Midwest, and outside activities are on hold for a few more months. This is perfect for this time of year. I especially like the addition of the stenciling a design to customize the paper! 😊
My health just wouldn't let me do the all day process. This will make it so much easier for me. Thanks for sharing and so glad I found your channel. ❤❤❤
Hello from Alberta, Canada! This will be so much easier to do in my apartment! Thank you! I have just subscribed, can't wait to dive into your channel!
Great process! Thanks for sharing. I have been using a brush to apply the coffee for awhile but had never considered using my box fan. I will give your process a try. This summer I found some stacked sweater drying racks and have been using them to dry my paper. The racks cut down on my needed drying space.
What a fantastic idea! I love coffee staining paper, but my patience run out before my stack of papers get finished! This is going to be my way of doing it from now on!!! Thank you so much for sharing that with all of us, and we have more time to really do the fun stuff! 😊 And you have gotten a new subscriber ! Have a happy day! I can't wait to catch up and see what other things you have come up with!!! tee hee

I'm in the UK and I have a 9 tray food dehydrator. Sometimes I dry my papers in there or I'll just spray a few (I use a cat litter tray) when I think about it and just lay them on the trays to dry without turning it on. Herb drying racks are a popular way to dry papers too
Oh my goodness! You are a genius. I was wondering how I was going to make coffee paper with the weather so cold and I did not want to use the oven method. I absolutely love your stencil trick. I can't wait to try this. I really love all your videos and you do a wonderful job making all your instructions easy to follow. I especially love your freezer paper videos!!
I like this idea. I will have to use two oven racks to sandwich my papers and elevate the racks up on 4 large cans of tomatoes with a trash bag underneath to protect my floor. My fans are packed away for Winter but I have a standard small fan which I can use to blow across and under the paper. I'll just set up in a corner and forget it for the day. Thank you.
Thank you, Marilyn! 😊 That's a great idea! I've sandwiched my cookie racks as well 👍 I used Dollar Tree clamps to hold them together. This way it's easy to rearrange your papers to speed up the drying process. It works without a fan as well, especially good for those who have radiators 😉 Happy crafting! 🤗
I have been saving Amazon bubble wrap envelopes and I WOULD LOVE to know How To turn one into a Junk Journal Cover. I love coffee dying but don’t love the drying time especially since it’s cold here right now. Excited about checking out your video hack!!
@@chasingpaper2022 You’re welcome!! That’s awesome!! 🫶 I sure did!! 😃 I coffee dyed 22 pieces of printer paper and some envelopes last night, only I decided to use the oven because it’s too cold to use a box fan since our gas heater broke. I saw another video where you can set the oven on bake first and then switch to confection oven and it dried pretty fast. I used your method of using a baking drying rack and it was perfect!! I didn’t put the envelopes in the oven since they contain glue and I don’t know about that. Right now I’m food coloring paper cause as I was using the coffee dye I thought…food coloring? 🤔 I used to bake and decorate cakes so I have a bunch of different types of beautiful icing coloring on hand, like Duff (Jewel Colors) Electric blue, Sapphire, and Gold. 💛
@@LovinDebsFit50s Just seeing it now, but so glad you had great results dyeing paper! I am currently dyeing my papers with easter egg dye 😊Your paper sounds gorgeous! 😍Wish I could see those beautiful colors! 🤗🌺
I’m so happy I just saw this video. I put together last night a foot bath of all the envelopes papers everything I wanted to die with coffee. This is gonna be my try tomorrow. Thank you thank you thank you.
Yes! So true! I love ironing my coffee dyed paper for this very reason, even though I don't mind the wrinkles - such a nice smell and quite therapeutic! 😊☕✨
Great ideas! I do mine in the oven until almost dry..then I put them underneath a hot pizza stone to flatten and finish drying at the same time. Works great.
These papers are beautiful and so fast! I've got a ton of white paper that needs coffee dying and I've been putting it off forever! It's such a chore to do! The only thing I would say to be careful with is to make sure they really aren't dripping because of putting them over an electric fan!!! 🤯 I am in England and our electric is 240v not 100v like yours, so I definitely need to be careful with the wet + electric... however as you were drying it gave me an idea. I'm going to place another drying rack on top of the stack, and use clamp grips to hold them together. Actually I'm going to put a row of cable ties along one long edge, to create a hinge between the two racks. Leave them a tiny bit loose to allow for the thickness of the paper stack. Then I can close them together like a wire book cover, to sandwich the paper stack inside the two racks, and just clamp one side shut. That way I can prop my racks up vertically, and use my fan in it's normal, safer, upright position. I can flip the racks around the other way halfway through. No risk of drips on my fan! 😁 Thank you for sharing, that's made me feel way less intimidated by the coffee dying paper process! I'm looking forward to it now actually! 😘😘😘
Thank you so much for watching and for your comment! With my process, there is virtually no dripping, because the stacks on the racks are not that wet (dry papers in between the wet ones soak up all the extra coffee). That being said, I absolutely LOVE your idea of sandwiching the papers between two racks and propping them up vertically! It's great for those who don't have a box fan! Thank you for sharing a great tip! 🤗👍💕☕
I have never coffee dyed paper but now you have me convinced I can do it. If I don't have a fan, am I able to just let the papers dry naturally? Thanks so much for sharing this tip!
Thanks, Anita! So glad you feel inspired to give this a try! Just wanted to mention that you don’t necessarily have to have a box fan! If you have one of the smaller tabletop or a clip-on fans, it will work too! Just place your fan on the table facing up and prop your cooling rack on two stacks of books over the fan. It will take a bit longer to dry, but will still work. If you don’t have any fan, you can still give this method a try, but I would work with smaller stacks of paper, rearrange papers a few times more, and I’d use a hair dryer from the top, just to help to speed up your drying process. Happy crafting! 🤗 ☕️💕
just found you. All I can say is: oh my GAWD!!!!! Still new to paper crafts, but this channel is a GAME CHANGER!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!❤❤❤
Hello Valeriya!!! I like the way to dyed your papers. I watched Penny Rose Journals and she took her paper outside hosed it all down, placed a chain on them, poured hot coffee and just walked away. The papers came out stunning, some were very grungy while other papers just had a light tint to them. Lovely video and thank you so much for sharing, I can't wait to try this technique. Much Love from Texas!!💕💕
I love it, thank you so much! I typically only dye papers on vacation at night and spread out all over the condo on rolls of brown paper....lol. No more exhausting late nights on vacay! I'm doin' this instead! Thank you!
Great results. Thank you. I suggest raising the fan off the floor so it doesn’t end up in cavitation mode and/or burning up the motor. For me, I have a very very very old box fan … I’ll. Have to clean it up first, it’s that old and dirty from all the garage days. 😂
Thanks, Jenn! 😊You are absolutely right! 👍My fan has legs on one side, so it is still raised when placed on its side (that’s why it looks kind of tilted in the video), but for those fans without legs it’s very important to raise them up a bit so that they can get air. Great tip! Thank you for sharing! 😊👍☕️
This is such a great idea. You are so right, coffee dying your own paper is very time consuming. I just coffee dyed a bunch of envelopes yesterday. Now I have a new idea of decorating. I will use some of my stencils and give them a slight inking. Thanks so much for sharing.
Bonsoir Mme, Merci 1000 fois pour votre façon de faire, j'avoue que vous m'avez donné envie d'essayer votre méthode plus rapide que de faire tremper les feuilles, qui en plus font des saletés partout, le rendu est excellent, propre, avec le petit repassage c'est parfait, j'ai hâte d'en préparer, je penserai à vous à se moment spécial, merci beaucoup pour votre magnifique idée, cordialement Marie 💕
Thank you so much, Marie! 💖 What a thoughtful and sweet comment! I am so glad that this video was helpful and I hope you enjoy your coffee dyeing process! Have fun and happy crafting! 🤗🌺💕
Oh my, I have always done it the old way by dipping my papers and putting them all over outside and sometimes inside on my kitchen counter, table and stove in single layers to dry. Ugg, It has always taken me an entire day to coffee dye my papers. You betcha I am going to try this one...TODAY!
Thank you, Mary! 🤗 I'm sure you are going to love it, because it's so much faster! Now you'll just have to figure out what to do with all that free time! 😂 LOL Have a great weekend! 🤗🌺
Love the idea of using a fan to dry the papers, faster than the oven for sure. My only hesitation is the idea of putting wet papers over an electrical device. I understand that you wiped the bottom before moving it to the fan but the stack would still be wet and have water dripping. Might try it with the fan blowing on the pages instead. Either way thank you for sharing this tip as it is always good to have multiple ideas.
Thank you so much! I understand your concern. If there was any dripping, I would never place the rack over the fan. However, the paper is not soaking wet, because we don’t dip nor soak our paper in coffee, but only “paint” *every* *other* *page* .Any extra coffee gets soaked up by the dry pages in between. Then we also wipe the bottom of the rack to catch the drops coming from the first couple of layers. My fan is white, and I never found any coffee drops on it 🙂 Of course, you can use the fan blowing on the pages instead. I just wanted to explain the process again to address your concern 😊👍
@@chasingpaper2022 thank you for your response and clarification. It really does look like a neat idea and hopefully i will get a chance to try it. Happy crafting :)
Thanks, Debbie! So glad you liked it! You don't even have to have a box fan! If you have a sanding fan or a clip-on fan, you can place a second cooling rack on top of your papers, clip two racks together with clamps or clip binders, then place your cooling rack "sandwich" vertically in front of your fan 😉 Happy crafting! 🤗🌺
Thank you so much for amazing idea and brilliant explanation. Yours videos are very helpful and pleasure to watch! I am happy to find your chanel and looking forward for your new videos.
That is such a good idea to use a fan. I’ve seen people use microwaves. I’m an oven dryer or do a batch, when we get hot weather in Scotland, on the table. New subscriber xxx
I love this! I have coffee dyed paper and I always end up with one or two corners getting torn from lifting them out of the coffee bath - I'm going to try this painting technique next time! I love the stenciled designs, too! I was wondering how you got the lovely floral design when you first showed us the papers! Thank you for sharing the idea!
Thanks so much! 😊 Yes! Definitely give it a go! I bet you won't be buying coffee dyed paper ever again! Making your own this way is so much fun - and way cheaper, too! 🤗☕✨
Thank you for such a great video. This process is easier than I expected. I love how you used your stencils! You can then customize your papers for the project. Your papers are lovely. I am definitely putting this technique on my must try list. 🌸
Thank you so very much for such an outstanding tutorial!! This method looks so much easier than the soaking/baking method…I am definitely trying it! ❤️
Love using distress oxides! I have been following my own process for dying paper using a fan as well. Definitely trying trying adding distress oxides! ❤
Perfect technique! I can’t wait to try it. I ran out of my coffee dyed paper too. I’m gonna try beet juice from a cheap can of sliced beets as well as the coffee. Love your videos.

(j'ai fait traduire mon message écrit précédement ) . Good evening from the South of France. Thank you for this well explained method. I share with you another method for lazy people. You take a plastic tray with edges, large enough for A4 format. (You can protect your tray with cling film). You put coffee in this tray.

You move your tray so that all the leaves are soaked; In short, you do this with the number of leaves you want to make or the quantity of coffee you have.

I did this today!! I have so many lovely dyed papers now. I did use a strong tea solution because I prefer the scent more than coffee. Did a few stencils while drying also. Most of them came out great. I am blessed to have our whole basement as my creative space. So once my papers were about half dry using the box fan, I did spread them out to dry. I also made a few blue tinted pages. Tip for that: reinkers mixed in water work better than acylic paint. Thank you for this game changing video!
Wonderful! So glad you tried it out with great results! Great tip on using reinkers! I usually use water with a few drops of watercolors for my color tinted papers. Thank you for sharing! 😊👍☕✨
Doesn’t the box fan need air flowing in the back? Laying it on its back doesn’t burn it up?
@@jennifers8843 Yes, absolutely! It does need to have a good airflow. My fan has legs, so it’s not flat and gets plenty of air. I also addressed this in the video description and in the pinned comment on top. Thank you for watching! 👍
The stencilled roses are beautiful on your paper. ❤
Thank you so much! 😊
I have been known to put my papers in the clothes dryer. Lol, they will need ironing afterwards. when I made handmade papers I would press each piece onto the sliding glass door to dry, nice and flat.
The tumble dryer??? Seriously? Not when they're at the soggy stage or they'd fall to pieces wouldn't they? I never thought of the tumble dryer..... explanation please! 😁😁😁
Yeah, don't put them in soggy, partially wet.
They dry really fast in the tumbler, they separate themselves. Really saves time.but like I said they'll need to be ironed.
@@tamielizabethallaway2413
How interesting! Never heard of that before! Thanks for sharing!
One easy way that I make coffee dyed papers is to make a batch of instant coffee, put in a spray bottle and spray it on copy paper. Let it set outside until dried and that's it. I love the prints on these papers however, and that is something I want to try. Thank you so much for sharing your techniques and ideas. Love them all.
@@ellenjent4956 Thank you so much! Great tip 😊👍
This is THE best "coffee stain"/hack tutorial I have ever seen...and I've watched a LOT.😁
I have a disability w/chronic pain. Coffee & tea staining is such a chore. But it's a "must have". I have been using the "paint on" technique. But just stacking them on top of layers of paper towels in a large baking sheet. I have to monitor them, flipping the stacks, exposing the sheets in the middle, rearranging them, on & on...for days.😳
I don't have a box fan. But I do have several drying racks that stack...and a standing fan. The inks & stencils as well!🤗
Ty so much!!💗💗💗
Thank you so much! 😊 I hope this hack will make your coffee dyeing process a lot easier and more enjoyable! Take good care and Happy crafting! ❤
Certainly am glad that you thought of using your fan. I won’t be bothering with my previous way. Now, where’s our fan….😎
Thanks, Cheryl! 😊So glad you find it helpful! Have fun! 🤗🌺
I do very similar. I have a clothes drying rack with several drying bars on top, so I place my box fan face down on it to dry everything. I also use the cooling racks balanced across the lower beams to stack the papers on. If you only need a few, you can drape them individually over the bars, and they dry in only a few minutes! I did that when I dyed with Kool-Aid to make colorful journal pages.😁
Sounds great! Thank you for sharing, Amber! 😊👍
Wish I still had my box fan! But will improvise because that’s what junk journalers do! Wish I had radiators in my house like when I was a child! Thanks for sharing! Was happy when I saw a video of yours in my feed😊
Thank you so much, Cindy! 🤗 You don't even have to have a box fan, any fan will do! 😉 May take a bit longer to dry, though 😅 Hope you are having a great week! 😊🌸✨
Although I don’t have that type of fan, I will use the oven. I love the use of painting it on, I will definitely try that
Thanks, Sophie!😊Whatever works best for you! Just wanted to mention that you don’t necessarily have to have a box fan! If you have one of the smaller tabletop or a clip-on fans, it will work too! Just place your fan on the table facing up and prop your cooling rack on two stacks of books over the fan. It will take a bit longer to dry, but will allow you to avoid using the oven 😉 Happy crafting! 🤗 ☕️💕
Thank you for sharing a very simplified method of coffee dying. Now I feel able to handle the project.
So glad to hear it! Thank you! 😊
This is quite wonderful!! We live in PA, so doing this outside right now is not doable, like you said. This is a great alternative. And I love the idea of using stencils! I've never had good luck with doilies and plastic tablecloths. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so very much! 😊Glad it was helpful! I agree - the doilies are a hit and miss for me as well 😅Happy crafting! 🤗💫🌺
I wasn’t sold on coffee dying until I saw this. The added stencil art is gorgeous.
Thank you so much, Deborah! 😊☕So glad you liked it!
I also use a fan and racks because I only have the top of my washing machine to dry paper on. I don't stack mine and I don't use a box fan though. I lay 4 single sheets (2 on each rack), usually with a stencil on top of each and then I point my little desk fan right on them. All four sheets will be dry in about 10 minutes and then I dip 4 more sheets in coffee, cover with a stencil and put them on the rack in front of the fan. My washer is in the kitchen and so is my crafting area so it's easy enough to keep an eye on the paper's progress and to make more when a batch drys. I use a hair straightener or my laminating machine (with no plastic pouch) to iron my paper. I'm anxious to try stacking my papers like you do to see if it is faster than my method. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and happy crafting!
Thank you so much, Heather! I enjoyed learning your process! I hope you enjoy my technique as well! Let me know how you like it! Hugs! 🤗☕
Great idea using the ink!
Thanks, Connie! 😊☕️
Amazing! I watched a video of how to dye paper with the soaking method and was thouroughly discouraged at how much work it was! I am SO ready to try this now! I don't think I ever would have tried the soaking method. WAY TOO much work! Also love, love, love the stenciling hack! You're ingenious!
Thank you so much, Laurie! I truly appreciate it! ❤ So glad that you liked the video and even got inspired to give it a try! Enjoy!! Happy crafting! 🤗🌺💕
That is by far the most beautiful paper!
Thank you so much! 😊
Thank you for sharing this technique! I’m in the Midwest, and outside activities are on hold for a few more months. This is perfect for this time of year. I especially like the addition of the stenciling a design to customize the paper! 😊
Thank you! So glad you like it! 😊☕🌸
Loved this tutorial! You have such a lovely lilting accent ❤️. Where are you from?
Thank you so much! 😊 Glad you loved the tutorial! I’m from the US 🇺🇸 The accent is Ukrainian 🌻💛💙 with a dash of Brooklyn 😎🗽😁
Very helpful. I also put the coffee or tea in a spray bottle for a different look. Add a few drops of alcohol to prevent spoilage.
Thank you, Laura! Great tip! 😊👍
Thank you the great tips about adding the alcohol

Great process! Thanks for sharing. I have been using a brush to apply the coffee for awhile but had never considered using my box fan. I will give your process a try. This summer I found some stacked sweater drying racks and have been using them to dry my paper. The racks cut down on my needed drying space.
Thank you, Katherine! 😊 Great tip on using a drying rack! 👍 Thanks for sharing!
YEA!!!! No more all day dying papers. Awesome idea. Thanks
Thank you so much, Gloria! 🤗☕️💖
What a fantastic idea! I love coffee staining paper, but my patience run out before my stack of papers get finished! This is going to be my way of doing it from now on!!!

I'm in the UK and I have a 9 tray food dehydrator. Sometimes I dry my papers in there or I'll just spray a few (I use a cat litter tray) when I think about it and just lay them on the trays to dry without turning it on.
Herb drying racks are a popular way to dry papers too
Great tips! Thanks for sharing! 😊👍
Great idea using the fan on its side! Thanks for sharing!💕
Thanks, Sabrina! 🤗 I am actually quite proud of thinking of that! ☺️
Best tip in the video is the use of Gathered Twigs ink. So much better than Vintage Photo for making a color match. Thankyou.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!

Thank you so much! 😊 Glad you liked it!
Thank you for sharing your technique. It will definitely make my coffee dying much easier 😊
Yay! So glad to hear it! Thank you for watching! 🤗
Oh my goodness! You are a genius. I was wondering how I was going to make coffee paper with the weather so cold and I did not want to use the oven method. I absolutely love your stencil trick. I can't wait to try this. I really love all your videos and you do a wonderful job making all your instructions easy to follow. I especially love your freezer paper videos!!
Oh Thank you! 😊 I really appreciate it! So glad you are enjoying my videos! 🤗💕
I like this idea. I will have to use two oven racks to sandwich my papers and elevate the racks up on 4 large cans of tomatoes with a trash bag underneath to protect my floor. My fans are packed away for Winter but I have a standard small fan which I can use to blow across and under the paper. I'll just set up in a corner and forget it for the day. Thank you.
Thank you, Marilyn! 😊 That's a great idea! I've sandwiched my cookie racks as well 👍 I used Dollar Tree clamps to hold them together. This way it's easy to rearrange your papers to speed up the drying process. It works without a fan as well, especially good for those who have radiators 😉 Happy crafting! 🤗
I have been saving Amazon bubble wrap envelopes and I WOULD LOVE to know How To turn one into a Junk Journal Cover. I love coffee dying but don’t love the drying time especially since it’s cold here right now. Excited about checking out your video hack!!
Thanks for sharing! I'm putting Amazon bubble wrap envelope Junk Journal on my list ✔ Hope you like this coffee dying technique! Happy crafting! 😊☕✨
@@chasingpaper2022 You’re welcome!! That’s awesome!! 🫶 I sure did!! 😃 I coffee dyed 22 pieces of printer paper and some envelopes last night, only I decided to use the oven because it’s too cold to use a box fan since our gas heater broke. I saw another video where you can set the oven on bake first and then switch to confection oven and it dried pretty fast. I used your method of using a baking drying rack and it was perfect!! I didn’t put the envelopes in the oven since they contain glue and I don’t know about that.
Right now I’m food coloring paper cause as I was using the coffee dye I thought…food coloring? 🤔 I used to bake and decorate cakes so I have a bunch of different types of beautiful icing coloring on hand, like Duff (Jewel Colors) Electric blue, Sapphire, and Gold. 💛
@@LovinDebsFit50s Just seeing it now, but so glad you had great results dyeing paper! I am currently dyeing my papers with easter egg dye 😊Your paper sounds gorgeous! 😍Wish I could see those beautiful colors! 🤗🌺
Great idea! I didn’t like using my oven as it dried out my paper too much and some even burned a bit. This is much safer.
Thank you so much! 💖Glad you liked it!😊🌺
I’m so happy I just saw this video. I put together last night a foot bath of all the envelopes papers everything I wanted to die with coffee. This is gonna be my try tomorrow. Thank you thank you thank you.
That's awesome! Glad I had a perfect timing with this video! 🤗 Thank you! 😊
I have just found your channel, this is a great video, TYFS. 😊
Thanks so much! 😊 I'm so glad you discovered my channel! Welcome! 🤗
it smells so nice after its dried - and when I iron it, very fun.
Yes! So true! I love ironing my coffee dyed paper for this very reason, even though I don't mind the wrinkles - such a nice smell and quite therapeutic! 😊☕✨
Great ideas! I do mine in the oven until almost dry..then I put them underneath a hot pizza stone to flatten and finish drying at the same time. Works great.
Great tip! Thanks for sharing!
Love this technique !! Thank you.

These papers are beautiful and so fast!
I've got a ton of white paper that needs coffee dying and I've been putting it off forever! It's such a chore to do!
The only thing I would say to be careful with is to make sure they really aren't dripping because of putting them over an electric fan!!! 🤯
I am in England and our electric is 240v not 100v like yours, so I definitely need to be careful with the wet + electric... however as you were drying it gave me an idea. I'm going to place another drying rack on top of the stack, and use clamp grips to hold them together.
Actually I'm going to put a row of cable ties along one long edge, to create a hinge between the two racks. Leave them a tiny bit loose to allow for the thickness of the paper stack. Then I can close them together like a wire book cover, to sandwich the paper stack inside the two racks, and just clamp one side shut.
That way I can prop my racks up vertically, and use my fan in it's normal, safer, upright position. I can flip the racks around the other way halfway through. No risk of drips on my fan! 😁
Thank you for sharing, that's made me feel way less intimidated by the coffee dying paper process!
I'm looking forward to it now actually! 😘😘😘
Thank you so much for watching and for your comment! With my process, there is virtually no dripping, because the stacks on the racks are not that wet (dry papers in between the wet ones soak up all the extra coffee). That being said, I absolutely LOVE your idea of sandwiching the papers between two racks and propping them up vertically! It's great for those who don't have a box fan! Thank you for sharing a great tip! 🤗👍💕☕
I have never coffee dyed paper but now you have me convinced I can do it. If I don't have a fan, am I able to just let the papers dry naturally? Thanks so much for sharing this tip!
Thanks, Anita! So glad you feel inspired to give this a try! Just wanted to mention that you don’t necessarily have to have a box fan! If you have one of the smaller tabletop or a clip-on fans, it will work too! Just place your fan on the table facing up and prop your cooling rack on two stacks of books over the fan. It will take a bit longer to dry, but will still work. If you don’t have any fan, you can still give this method a try, but I would work with smaller stacks of paper, rearrange papers a few times more, and I’d use a hair dryer from the top, just to help to speed up your drying process. Happy crafting! 🤗 ☕️💕
@@chasingpaper2022 Oh, thank you so so much for the tips and for responding too!
Box fan is a great idea! I hang mine on a wooden drying rack with a fan in the room, but I will sure give this a try
That’s a great idea as well! 👍Thank you for sharing! 😊☕️🌸
just found you. All I can say is: oh my GAWD!!!!! Still new to paper crafts, but this channel is a GAME CHANGER!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Eli! ❤️How sweet of you! Welcome to my channel! 🤗 I’m so happy you are here! 😊🌺💕
Hello Valeriya!!! I like the way to dyed your papers. I watched Penny Rose Journals and she took her paper outside hosed it all down, placed a chain on them, poured hot coffee and just walked away. The papers came out stunning, some were very grungy while other papers just had a light tint to them. Lovely video and thank you so much for sharing, I can't wait to try this technique. Much Love from Texas!!💕💕
That sounds interesting! Thank you for sharing! 🤗🌺
Brilliant!!.. I need to do this thank you for sharing!!
Thank you, Dorothy! 😊
They look pretty
Thank you! 😊
I love it, thank you so much! I typically only dye papers on vacation at night and spread out all over the condo on rolls of brown paper....lol. No more exhausting late nights on vacay! I'm doin' this instead! Thank you!
No more wasting precious vacation time! Glad you like this idea! 😊 Have fun and Happy crafting! 🤗☕✨
Such a game changer! I was glued to this video from the start! Perfect hack for both dying and making it pretty.
Thank you so much, Cathy! 💖So glad you enjoyed the video! 🤗
Great results. Thank you. I suggest raising the fan off the floor so it doesn’t end up in cavitation mode and/or burning up the motor. For me, I have a very very very old box fan … I’ll. Have to clean it up first, it’s that old and dirty from all the garage days. 😂
Thanks, Jenn! 😊You are absolutely right! 👍My fan has legs on one side, so it is still raised when placed on its side (that’s why it looks kind of tilted in the video), but for those fans without legs it’s very important to raise them up a bit so that they can get air. Great tip! Thank you for sharing! 😊👍☕️
@@chasingpaper2022 I kept looking at the fan and wondered if it was raised a tad. Good to know. Thanks!
@@jennr7500 It also helps doing it on the hard floor, not the carpet. It helps the air flow!
👏 awesome…so much faster to make than all the other videos on Utube…Great Job 😊
Thank you so very much! 😊 I'm so glad you like it!
Great idea
Thank you! 😊
This is such a great idea. You are so right, coffee dying your own paper is very time consuming. I just coffee dyed a bunch of envelopes yesterday. Now I have a new idea of decorating. I will use some of my stencils and give them a slight inking. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you so much! 😊I bet your envelopes will turn out gorgeous! 😍
Great idea & wonderfully simplified tutorial! Great job!
Thank you so much! 😊 I appreciate that! 🤗
Terrific, much easier and much less mess
Thank you! I think so too 😊 Glad you like it! ☕️💕✨
Bonsoir Mme,
Merci 1000 fois pour votre façon de faire, j'avoue que vous m'avez donné envie d'essayer votre méthode plus rapide que de faire tremper les feuilles, qui en plus font des saletés partout, le rendu est excellent, propre, avec le petit repassage c'est parfait, j'ai hâte d'en préparer, je penserai à vous à se moment spécial, merci beaucoup pour votre magnifique idée, cordialement Marie 💕

Oh my, I have always done it the old way by dipping my papers and putting them all over outside and sometimes inside on my kitchen counter, table and stove in single layers to dry. Ugg, It has always taken me an entire day to coffee dye my papers. You betcha I am going to try this one...TODAY!
Thank you, Mary! 🤗 I'm sure you are going to love it, because it's so much faster! Now you'll just have to figure out what to do with all that free time! 😂 LOL Have a great weekend! 🤗🌺
Great demonstration ❤. Thanks for sharing 👏👏👏
Thank you so much! 😊☕✨
Genius! I love the coffee dye paper, but hate the process. This will make it so much easier. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Edie! 😊 So glad it was helpful! Happy crafting! 🤗☕️✨
Love the idea of using a fan to dry the papers, faster than the oven for sure. My only hesitation is the idea of putting wet papers over an electrical device. I understand that you wiped the bottom before moving it to the fan but the stack would still be wet and have water dripping. Might try it with the fan blowing on the pages instead. Either way thank you for sharing this tip as it is always good to have multiple ideas.
Thank you so much! I understand your concern. If there was any dripping, I would never place the rack over the fan. However, the paper is not soaking wet, because we don’t dip nor soak our paper in coffee, but only “paint” *every* *other* *page* .Any extra coffee gets soaked up by the dry pages in between. Then we also wipe the bottom of the rack to catch the drops coming from the first couple of layers. My fan is white, and I never found any coffee drops on it 🙂 Of course, you can use the fan blowing on the pages instead. I just wanted to explain the process again to address your concern 😊👍
@@chasingpaper2022 thank you for your response and clarification. It really does look like a neat idea and hopefully i will get a chance to try it. Happy crafting :)
This is great idea, I've dried many other ways of doing this, it was very messy. I will have to buy a box fan. Thankyou for this tutorial.
Thanks, Debbie! So glad you liked it! You don't even have to have a box fan! If you have a sanding fan or a clip-on fan, you can place a second cooling rack on top of your papers, clip two racks together with clamps or clip binders, then place your cooling rack "sandwich" vertically in front of your fan 😉 Happy crafting! 🤗🌺
Thank you so much for amazing idea and brilliant explanation. Yours videos are very helpful and pleasure to watch! I am happy to find your chanel and looking forward for your new videos.
Thank you so much! 😊 So nice of you to say it! Can't wait to share more fun projects with you! 🤗
Wow must try this! Thank you
Please do! Thank you! 🤗💕
I put them in my laundry room on top of my washer and dryer in cookies sheet pans, because I have a ceiling fan always going in there . Works great.
Sounds good! Thank you for sharing your tip!
Great ideas! I might try dying my papers now!!! TFS!!!❤❤❤
Yay! Glad you will give it a try! Thank you! 😊
That is such a good idea to use a fan. I’ve seen people use microwaves. I’m an oven dryer or do a batch, when we get hot weather in Scotland, on the table.
