I have been dying papers with food colors for a while now turns out so pretty..but I used small spray bottles that I got from Dollar general
Oh my word this is amazing
Thank you for sharing your process! One thing you might try if you're having trouble separating pages - I use a larger pan (lasagna sized) and stagger the layers. It made it easier for me to find the edges, and I tore fewer corners. :)
Melina, your method of drying is new to me looking forward to trying. Marietta
You can use the HP paper and tear it.
Been using food coloring for years and recently bought....... Food Coloring - 24 Color Rainbow Fondant Cake Food Coloring Set for Baking, Decorating, Icing and Cooking - neon Liquid Food Color Dye for Slime, Soap Making Kit and DIY Crafts.25 fl.oz.(6ml)Bottles Twenty Four colors!!!! To use in all kinds of crafting.
After Easter and all the egg dying kits go on sale I buy a bunch up and use them to dye my papers and they turn out goergous. You can usually get them for a quarter each I have gotten them for ten cents each.
Yes!
That’s a great idea. Thanks I will try that also
Gorgeous ! I must try that!
Go for it!
Beautiful 🤗🤗🤗
I used food dye. Reg not gel. My colours were not as soft tone and pastel
I will try another batch with the gel food colour this time!
Yours look so pretty ………🥰
Ok thank you
Wow! The dyed papers and doily’s are beautiful!!! So worth the time and effort!!! I never thought to do book pages! Thank you so much for sharing the process!!!❤
I have trouble getting those type of gloves on too. I’ve found that if I sprinkle a little powder on my hands & rub it all around, my gloves slide in easily.
Great job on the papers. I did some the other day and added a little vinager am it made the colors more intense. Just like you do with Easter eggs. Just a suggestion.
Vinegar also helps the colours stay over time.
@@jackitobin4747 yes. I have had mine down for about 2 months and the color hasn’t changed.
Thank you!
I Loved this video,i was having kind of a hard day/morning and i sat down with my morning coffe and watched your video and at the end of your video my mood had compleetly changed-so though i am in a though spot in my life i am so grateful for your video,for you making it. i am really grateful for my life-even the hard parts cause they often give us great lessons when looking back,so now i am going outside to walk my seniour horse,take my dog too,let them have some fun in the forest and maybe do some dying papers after when i am back. Bless you. Hugs from Norway
Thank you so much for commenting. Big hugs from Alabama!
Absolutely beautiful,how satisfying dying paper is! I have been using gel food coloring recently to color paper and am very pleased with result.
Great video.
I just think it somehow works better than the teardrop ones? Maybe the gel is more concentrated color? I don’t know but these turned out so well. So much better than I expected. I’m so excited!
Oh my....my adrenalin is rushing!!!😂 Love all the colors!!❤
Oh Melina they will make a beautiful Spring or Easter journals. I've done tea stain but not colors and I will be doing this. Thank you for sharing this. 🙂❤
Oh my!! This is exactly what I want to do!! Thank you so very much for this fabulous video!!♥️♥️♥️
I can definitely relate w the excitement! I did a beautiful blue kinda turquoise dyed papers few months ago w food coloring and I've been hoarding it 😅 I loved it so much that I don't want run out of it. I could make more but what if it doesn't get the same color 🙄🤦♀️😅 I love the green that you got when you mixed it w the blue, I'll gonna have to try that one. Enjoy your beautiful papers Melina, I'm sure you can't wait to play w those 😊💖
❤️❤️❤️
Oh my, these are amazing and what a great way to dye papers. Thank you for the inspiration Melina ! You are the BEST !
So sweet! Thank you!
So gorgeous! I haven’t every tried using food coloring, I think it is time I give it a try! Beautifully done! 💚💙🧡💖
Thanks so much!
Your dyed papers turned out gorgeous! Loved them all! TFS 🤗. PS I went to your Pylant family music site to see you all sing for the first time! I loved it so much and I watched several videos! You are so talented! TY for your service to our King! 🙏💖🎶
Thanks for sharing. I have never dyed paper with food coloring.
Beautiful! I love the colors!! I’m going to try this now. ❤
This method is great! I’m not selling anything and this method makes so much since - dying all the papers/items you’ll use for say a journal one has in mind and, your done! Minimal color dying at one time. Thank you.
I loved watching ur process. Maybe u could try when u take a page out and it has a small puddle use a straw and gently blow on it and se what kind of designs u get. im going to try it. i love th colors. i wanted a purple to. LOL THANKS for sharing. U and urr mom have some great ideas. I use to scrapbook also back whn it was the big crazy. I did a lot of albums.and then just got burned out. How many albums u think u did. i lost some of my favorit stuff cause i loaned it to my daughter and she lost. My favorite thing was the paper crimper. U stuck a sheet paper in it and turned it and it crinkled it. My husband made me a punch gadget cause we had puncie piece swaps and it was rough on the hand, i just sat the punch under it and pulled the handle down on it, so much easier. I LOVE UR TAG TUes. thank you.🐞🐞🐞
The gel food colours are very rich! Gorgeous! I dry my papers on low in my Sahara food dryer for about an hour; that way I can get more done in a day and not worry about setting fire to them or over-drying in the oven (haven't got room to lay them out anywhere). (my food dryer has rectangular shelving; the grid pattern on them sometimes shows on the dried papers too, which I'm okay with). Otherwise can use the dryer silicon type sheets that come with the dryer...
HEY.. HOW'D you'd get MY cookie sheet?? 😅
I'm waiating on my food coloring to come come from Amazon today!! So pretty!
It looks like so much fun. I enjoyed your enthusiasm for the beautiful colors. Thank you for sharing your creativity. God bless.
Gorgeous colors! Thank you so much for the step by step process, Melina!
You could add more water or add a little bit of white paint to soften up the red, but not too much because you’ll get pink unless that’s what you’re kind of looking for just an idea
All I do is put a stack of paper in my pan pour 3 cups of water with food coloring in it and turn pages back and forth removing a page at a time and laying them staggered on my craft table ten sheets or so thick on top of each other at different angles and let them dry under my ceiling fan for a few hours. 4 or so. then they have ripples and cracks and marks all over them and I iron them the next day and it is so easy one pan and a table to dry them on. The colors are beautiful!!!!
What a fun video!!! I can’t wait to see the finished results. ❤️. Thanks for sharing
Iike your process! If you want a softer or more pinkish red, you can add a little blue or purple to the red.
I do like you've done but I also put sprinkles put the sprinkles on copy paper and squirter cold water on the sprinkles green and red looks great its fun to see what you get.
I add pieces of party streamer randomly. They mostly stay and look cool
I like to eco dye. I leave my papers to sit in the colour overnight, Lift it out my pan and hold it until it stops dripping. I can separate the pages easily then..
I'm in the UK but have a big food dehydrator that I sometimes dry papers in if I'm doing a big amount, or if a small amount I will lay them on the big trays just to air dry.
I always have a plant sprayer of a very strong coffee dye next to my dehydrator and will spray a few pages here and there.
My favourite pages are the ones where the colours mix.
In the UK, a lot of people use a herb rack that hangs to dry papers.
Your colour stack is gorgeous. I've just got 3 colour gels to try with my papers
Neat ideas!
Thanks for sharing your process!!! 😊💜 I've been meaning to make some more food color pages. They turn out so pretty and everyone thinks the paper is so nice. With color mixing food color: To make the color less bright, add a drop or two of the complimentary color. The reason mixing compliments makes brown is because they are try to cancel each other out so you get a neutral color.
Your papers turned out awesome!!!
Thank you so much Holly!
Fantastic! I noticed my teardrop food coloring had expired and I'm so glad that I didn't throw it out. Now I know exactly what to do with it. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Never Dyed paper or anything yet hoping to soon Thank you
Those are amazing 🤩
Thank you!
That’s gorgeous! Omg ! ❤️
So relaxing to dye papers. I love the colors you made Melina. Beautiful ❤️ Can't wait to see how you use them.
Thanks so much 😊
Beautiful just beautiful! I love these. May I ask a question? Can you add coffee or tea to the color water? Thanks for sharing. Love and Hugs.
Thank you! I would think you could especially since coffee and tea are “food” and this is food coloring. But I would start with a tiny bit at a time and test dip some scrap paper before adding too much. The brown from that may muddy the colors too much.
I've added coffee before and it gives grungy color. It looks great. Sometimes I just sprinkle little instant coffee on colored paper out of water to give a different effect.
Hi Mylena Gail from Massachusetts here your new subscriber! I bought kool aide and food coloring. So I typed how to dry junk journal paper with food coloring and watched a few . I was crafting and half paying attention because I have no desire to bake paper in oven . Then you came up and I saved you to watch again for real ! Wow they came out beautiful. I really want pink papers too . When you added yellow I was oh no ! But it PERFECT coral peach ! I bet I end up orange. My birthday may 20 . Love emeralds of course. My favorite color is Aqua when asked . Everyone always says AQ ? I say actually Tiffany blue my favorite color or and shade of blue and green combine. I can’t wait to see your other videos for junk journaling! You should see my apartment when I dyed coffee and tea batch . Paper hanging over everything. Thank goodness I am empty nester ! Lol you didn’t even have to iron either. Why everyone else take risk and constantly checking oven ? Me and my five kids lost our home to a fire . It was small fire 🔥 I tried putting out but fire spread so fast in matter of seconds. No way TTFN
Thank you so much for watching. Thank you for this kind comment. Welcome to my channel.
Big hugs! 💗💗💗
How long was the drying time?
These look amazing! Love the sherbet color! Getting some Doilies this weekend to try this out! TFS
Have fun!
Turned out totally awesome 😎
Sooooooo pretty. What would happen if I sprayed some water and then dropped some color drops on them? Oh and maybe put some different colored doilies on top to dry? I'm going to do that very thing in the morning. Thank you for inspiring me on this project. To be honest I've been procrastinating lately because of lack of inspiration. You have awakened my creative juices. Yay!! Thank you
You would get a gorgeous watercolor effect! I love splattering paper. Have fun!
Thanks for sharing! Great inspiration and clear instruction. 💙🧡 from a fellow Bama gal!
Thanks for watching!
Hi, I have a question. If I do two layers of color, will the color become more intense? I do the first layer, wait for the paper to dry completely, and then do the second layer. Thank you for your help!
I’m certain it would be. Let me know how it turns out!
Melina, that looked like more fun than dyeing easter eggs! It made me think of what I might try to dye with besides coffee and tea dyeing. Quick question: On one of your recent videos you made an envelope folio-journal and I wonder if you could tell me where I might find the metal pokey tool. Thank you for answering.
Oh that is an "AWL". We carry them in the shop. www.scrapbookingwithme.com just type in awl in the search bar when you click on shop. Mine is not the same brand as we have in the shop. Mine is very, very old! ha ha!
Do the doilies come out really wrinkled? I need some brown doilies for birthday party place settings, but I want them to look nice and not all crumpled. Thanks
No, they are nice and flat. I sometimes put those and my papers under large books to flatten if I feel they will crinkle.
Those are so pretty I am going to have to try it with food coloring I put some trash bags on my table (l have a round table ) I have use Tim Holtz ink and coffee to dye paper.....thank you, I am scare to put them in the oven so I turn my over until they are dry.
Thank you!
These are beautiful! Love the music too. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Oh Melina! This is wonderful! At one time, your Mom said that she used ink to dye,,, do y'all
still ink dye, too? Is the process the same?
Yes we ink dye. I find it the most expensive way to dye papers though. I mainly tea dye/stain my papers. Yes, it’s the same process as this. I make my tea super concentrated and add it hot to hot water then let it sit and steep about an hour before taking the tea bags out, stirring around the mixture and then dipping away. 🙂
Thank you for sharing that yumminess Melinda!!😄❤️❤️
Koolaid packets work also
I will definitely have to try this! The paper turned out gorgeous!!
Thanks so much 😊
Absolutely beautiful if you put a little cornstarch on your hands you're gloves will go on easier.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, have never dyed papers before and I don’t have much space to spread them out but watching this has ticked some boxes for me. Those papers are so gorgeous and it looks like great fun, I really have to try this sometime soon. Thank you for sharing xx
Wow factor. I did a rainbow of colors with my food colors. They are so beautiful I hate to use it. Lol yours are so pretty too!! Food coloring does a great y!!!
Thanks so much!
I CAN PICKLED BEETS AND AFTER WE DEVOUR THEM I USE THE JUICE FOR DYING PAPER AND CLOTH. REALLY LIKE THE COLOR.
Cool!
Do you if and know How long it takes before this color fades ?
Thank you!
As long as they aren’t exposed to direct sunlight, they don’t in my experience.
Amazing dyed papers. I loved the te hinqué and results. The greens were my favorite, but all were beautiful.
All my favorite colors!! I'm in love!!!!!🥰🥰🥰
Aren’t they precious! I love that I was able to get some vibrant colors instead of dull ole brown like I usually do. ha ha!
Those turned out so awesome.. im going to do some myself.. thank tou for sharing these..
Have fun!
Just beautiful! I can tell how excited you were for color! What fun! Thank you for sharing your method with the jell food coloring. I have the jell in little bottles, but I think it's probably the same, and will work as yours did. I made some alcohol inks with it that worked out well, so I'm sure it'll be good for dying my papers with as well. Will try it very soon!
Oh wow!!! How lovely. I’m on a trip visiting my children but I’ll be doing this as soon as I get home!!! Soooo pretty!
I've just started out and made my first journal and am on to my second. Using a lot more of the great ideas from watching these videos. Made some envelopes from printer paper and used food coloring to dye them. Your papers turned out great. So much fun learning all these unique ideas!
Your light that is reflecting in your pan looks a lightning bolt or electricity going thru your water
Ha! I’m so glad it wasn’t. Ha Ha! 😁😁😁
Just Beautiful, thank you so much for showing use how to do all these.
You are welcome! Thanks so much 😊
These look amazing! I have to make some with food coloring. I have use some diluted Tim holtz distress inks to make some before.
❤Gorgeous colours
After seeing your mom’s video, I spent last summer in my garage dying like you just did. The bounty that resulted was exhilarating. Such a great feeling. Enjoy your goodies.
These are GORGEOUS! I am going to be doing a dye session this week with a new technique I learned used food coloring and shaving cream. I just can't wait! I was wondering what temp your dye baths are? When I tea/coffee dyed, the water is really warm. I e wondered if the food dye intensity would be changed with different water temps? Thanks, Melina! Great bounty, great blessings!❤
I'd love to see your technique Robyn
I've seen that done before on Easter eggs. My water is just room temperature.
I'm loving this can't wait to do my papers
Yay! Go for it!
Very pretty. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! 😊
Do you use regular copy paper for your pages or do you get thicker copy paper?
Sometimes but I like using the premium copy paper a little more. It’s 28-32# weight. Purple packaging at Walmart.
love that you stack them, i was worried i wouldn't have enough space to do more than a couple at a time so im glad to see this technique!
Those really turned out looking great.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing this. Beautiful! Blessings! ❤️
When you air dry how long does it take for them to get totally dry?
With my box fan blowing on them, about 6 hours.
Beautiful papers. I am wondering if you are able to write on these pictures. Like will the ink work on the dyed paper.
Of course. Yes. You can write on dyed papers. Copy paper in itself is dyed white in its process of being made. Food colored dyed paper, coffee dyed paper, ink dyed paper and tea dyed papers all can be and are written on. I have 100’s of journals and I write on every paper in my journals. 🙂
@@MelinaPylant thank you. I know it was a silly question, but I was really not sure. Thank you again.
They turned out amazing.
Thank you!
Fabulous!
Nice to watch your process. Have you ever tried using natural dyes like beets , avocado or carrots?
No never tried actual food.
@@MelinaPylant you should try beets or avocado. Turmeric makes a beautiful yellow.
Good Job!
Wow!! Such beautiful colors and they all depict SPRING!! TFS!! Hugs, Liz:)
Thank you so much!
Beautiful. I always forget about doing food color pages. Yes, Easter pages. Great Spring colors. Thx for reminder.
Austin,TX USA
Thank you!
I need to start making my own, but the thoughts of guarding the oven, etc, just doesn’t excite me! This method, however, doesn’t incite dread! TFS!
Love to hear you talk about your girls night w/your daughter. Some of my favorite memories are of mine & moms Girl’s Nights. Now that she’s gone Home, just thinking about them brings me joy & comfort. A gift, that if it came with a card, it would say “hugs & kisses, love Mom from heaven”!!😇
Continued prayers for your dad & sister 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Yay! So glad this could lessen the anxiety. It is no fun standing over an oven like a mama chicken! 😁
Oh my goodness! Those are yummy papers!!! Thanks for showing your process... Another item on my bucket list.,😁
Thanks so much! 😊
That is awesome!! Thanks for the video!!!
WOW! Quite a lovely collection of dyed papers.
The colors are very Spring -like. It was a very worthwhile video to watch. Learned a lot. Thank you. Carol from California
Thank you so much 😊
So beautiful ..thank you
Thank you!
Just gorgeous!!! I am a little surprised you did not get any with a "red" tone. They are all pinks and peaches. But they are gorgeous! I just bought some Kool-Aid to dye some of my pages with. I also have my son saving avacado skins and pits for me. It is just so much fun to see what comes out of your efforts. And it never disappoints.
I know! I was totally expecting some “blood” looking pages or at least spots of it. Whew! I’m so glad it worked out. Ha ha!
I had tried food coloring for dying paper, but they were just too pastel for me. This shows me I need to try again, because yours came out very nicely. Maybe I just didn't use enough color. 😊
Yes, just keep on trying!
Love these. I'm excited to see you use color...
Are u using hot or room temp water?
Room temp
Fantastic, gorgeous, pretty 😍! So wonderful colors!
Thank you so much!
I totally love ❤ this video didn't know this could be done awesome I'll need to do some of these. Thank you for the Fabulous inspiration. Wow beautiful.
Thanks so much!
I’ve never used food coloring and anxious to try it! I use sugar-free drink mix. I dry them on racks on old sheets, on my kitchen table under the fan. Turn the fan up high and they dry overnight! I turn and separate them as they dry! Can’t wait to try the food coloring! Y’all do a great job! God bless you for sharing!
That's a great idea! Thanks for watching!
