How To: Dye Pagh/Turla

[Danny]

Just wondering if anyone here have any tips/tricks or info on dying paghs and turley a certain color or getting the tye-dye effect

ours are plain maroon right now and we were thinking of going to the local Micheal's or something and grabbing some dye and seeing it goes on some scrap material

most of the people i talked to said dont bother, it is always done best by the tailors in india, but we really don't have the time nor funds to go through that process

thanks in advance 8)

I may be wrong, but i think it would be smarted to get a white pug and make that ure base... adding colour to white will be more visible compared to adding it to maroon

Or you could try taking away color by bleaching it.

Yeah I would be best to bleach them first then DYE them.

I've always heard of dying white to the desired color. Sometimes a bleached out color will look horrible and you can't always get it back to the consistent color. White-->Color lets you choose.

Is there a place where you can get them dyed professionally in the Vancouver area??
