Snow Day?

Snow dye!

Golden Yellow

Scarlet

Sky Blue

The snow -- and the accompanying stiff wind -- stopped early this afternoon, and we were left with clear blue sky and a blanket of pristine white.  When I finished shovelling out my driveway and back walk, I just had to dip into some of it for snow dyeing.  In another couple of hours, the tubs will be ready for rinsing and setting with synthrapol.  Follow up photos to come.

P.S. You can find an excellent tutorial on this technique on this post from Gayle McKay in 2009. If you try it, I can guarantee you'll like it!
