Make a Natural Dye with Avocado Pits

In this project, you’ll learn how to create a very easy, mess-free natural dye bath with avocado pits, turning your fabric a lovely blush pink.

You can dye anything… pillowcases, tablecloths, napkins, etc. In this tutorial, I’m doing napkins.

You’ll need to have a handful of clean avocado pits (I used 6), so if you don’t eat a lot of avocados in one sitting, plan ahead and save them up! Just pop them in the freezer until you’re ready to use them.

You’ll also need some 100% natural cloth (linen, muslin and cotton are good) in white, cream or un-dyed. Just get a yard or two depending on how many napkins you want to make.
