A fun little project I wanted to try for ages. Before Christmas, I’ve finally found an online store that sells Sharpie pens in my country, and they were on sale!!! Then, a quick trip to the pharmacy for rubbing alcohol… And a couple of days to decide what to rainbowify.

We had this doily for decades, never used it. The perfect prey! Muahahaha!!!

I kinda like how it turned out, although I have no idea what am I going to do with it. I’m not a doily person, no matter how colorful it is. It would be nice if I could use it in an upcycling project, but I have some questions (to people that tried tie-dying with Sharpies):

• Is it fading over time? If so, how bad it is?

• Will the colors run if I machine wash it?

• How to stop Yellow from becoming muddy? The center was supposed to be red-orange-yellow-green, but Red devoured both Orange and Yellow before started to attack Green… Resulting in a muddy mess in some points. It’s like Yellow didn’t even try!

• When will my fingers return to be a human color?

Your answers are greatly appreciated!
