the PERFECT TEA DYE

Shari's Tea Dye

5 Tablespoons Instant Unsweetened NesTea

1 Cup of warm Water

3 Droppersful of Pure Essential Oil, Angel Kisses (or your favorite)

1 1/2 Teaspoons of Cinnamon

Mix together all ingredients WELL ( I use a glass measuring cup). There will be a foam on the top of mixture. Allow it to settle before using. I use a new sponge brush to apply. I set my oven to 190 degrees. Line a cookie sheet ( I have one just for baking crafts) with aluminum foil. Bake your item until dry. I check my pieces often and turn several times. Do not leave unattended! But, you can lightly sand and tea dye again, if you wish. Store in a covered container in fridge for several days.
