Hello dear community, I'm currently batik-dyeing T-shirts with a few batik colors, and I've realized that I'd like to add a bit of black for a stronger contrast. However, I don't have any black batik dye on hand, and I don't feel like ordering it now, as I'd like to continue batik-dyeing tomorrow morning. Hence…
I got batik powder on my beige carpet, but I didn't notice, and water must have gotten on it somehow. Now it's pink. What can I do?

I'm moving into my first apartment soon. It's from the '80s and furnished accordingly. I simply painted a lot of the furniture and gave it a bit of a contemporary makeover to save money. I'd like to do the same with the curtains on the window. These are dark blue and made of 100% cotton….
I recently did some tie-dyeing with spray tie-dyes. I used certain techniques like swirls and something like that, then I let everything dry for 8 hours (a bit longer). After that, I removed the elastic bands and washed the clothes under running water. It looked perfectly fine up until then, and then my mom put…
