Hello friends! The Belgian government has pressed it inhabitants to spend their small coins more. I have a better idea however. Let's turn some 1, 2 and 5 eurocents into a mordant or dyestuff. Or at least that's what I'll be attempting to do in this video. I'm not sure if I'll succeed. The dyeing of the wool with this homemade copper mordant doesn't really work as I expected it to. I do get some really nice colours, with my trusty dyestuff onionskins, but the green dye I was trying to achieve still seems to elude me... To be continued!
