A good site if your new to dyeing from plants, the only mordents you use are salt and vinegar, i`v dyed onion skins that came out a nice yellow, be warned, dont try cooking onion skins in this hot weather ...phew Laughing

What an interesting site.
When I clicked on the link it didn't work for me, but I got there by going to www.pioneerthinking.com then Lifestyle, then General Crafts. The webpage is exactly as you typed it but I have ZoneAlarm as my antivirus and it does some daft things sometimes so it's probably that.

I also love the truck giftbox I found along the way!

I have heard that turmeric gives an amazing yellow, but haven't tried it yet.
