    Default Dyeing craft fur ?


    Today at Hobby Lobby they didn't have chartreuse craft fur, so I had to settle for white, is there any way to dye this stuff .

    I bought some white from Hobby Lobby a few years ago and tried to dye it using Perfection dyes which have worked for me on anything I've ever dyed except for this craft hair. It looked great but when I rinsed it in cold water to set the color it all washed out.

    Not sure how you're using it but might could try making fake by using yarn. Here is a link where I show this. Also learned if you take a flat iron quickly to it then brush it again couple times it really softens and comes alive.

    Went to Walmart today and found some Spike-It Dip-N-Glo...it worked great.

    Never had any craft fur that dyed well, tried Kool-Aid, Fly Dye, Rit, Jacquards and Veniards.

    Spike-It Dip-N-Glo surely worked.
