Natural Dye Fabric Paint (works for watercolor too)

These new products are liquid extracts of natural dyes (fustic,
cochineal, and logwood). The are used by mordanting the fabric, yarn,
or fiber by soaking it overnight in a solution of water and mordant
(alum or tin). Right now we have Yellow (Fustic), Rose (Cochineal),
Purple (Logwood), and Blue (instant Indigo crystals). The paint dyes
can be mixed for different colors (like Green and Orange), as well.

They can be used as natural watercolor paints as well. Just brush a
mordant solution on the paper first, and then paint with the dyes.

Full instructions for use are here:
