Could you dye these? I am wondering if I bought the white sheers whether or not I would be able to dye them with rit or whether you believe they are to cheaply made to do so?

I know this question was posted more than 2 years ago, but thought it was a good one, so I'm answering it! Polyester cannot be dyed with typical dyes because it is a synthetic material. You need to get disperse dyes. I found a really good "how to" here: http://www.wikihow.com/Dye-Polyester.

I cldn't find any to match exactly so I just bought plain cranberry colored ones. Just pick one of ur favorite colors in the bedspread & get solid color curtains.

Yes you can use them the same way. They are more vibrant in color. But you can also use a very small amount and make the same color more of a pastal color. I love working with them.

Sorry, mine is on an old dark wood dresser -- but having seen them I think they could work on white. They are kind of small, just shy of an inch, but very pretty!

I use them for mixed media and art journaling. They are pigmented and I doubt if they would come completely out if you get them on clothes and try to wash it. Go to the Faber Castell site and they should have a contact us option and ask your question. It will depend on what you want them to be washed from like hands, clothes and etc.

Absolutely, but for both. It depends on your other attire. Will you be wearing a light, or even white shirt? Better get a white one for that. If wearing something dark, of course, the black is it. Only problem I'm running into with the white ones is how they get dingier after every wash. I will try to soak them in a bleach solution for about 20 to 30 minutes, then run them through the wash again, to see if it brightens them up. I have 5 white ones, one black. I try to budget a new purchase each month. The black is great, no turning grey like the white, but black is easily discolored by any bleach. I think that's it. You are welcome to inquire further.

Thanks everyone. I decided to match the aqua / turquoise color to the curtains. I thought that would look super with the colors in this design. I appreciate the help and know my brother and his girlfriend will love this!

Yes you CAN color them as long as they are made of real hair. I've toned, highlighted then toned again just to achieve my personal color match! Gently washing, extreme moisturizing and air drying will ensure long last and great wear! No need to wish every time they are worn. Keep clips CLOSED when not using and store in a bag.

I would not. These are a brushed bronze...on natural cherry, you would want a darker color...an antiqued/brushed black. If you put these on a natural cherry, I think they would look almost like a tarnished brushed nickel...it would bring out a yellow-ish tint. I used them on a beige/bronze high gloss paint for cabinet makeover, and they look dark. I did trim in a dark cherry color and had to redo to a colder brown (not warm cherry with red hues). Hope this helped!

HI I am sorry, I cannot get them in blue. They however, may be available from someone else. You could also change the ribbon on them to a blue ribbon which may take care of your needs? Thanks Paul

Yes they are similar to the UD Nake palette. The colors are ver pigmented. You should use primer with all eye shadows so you can get a better Color pay off but you can use this without if that's how you wear your eye shadow

I did not dye them but the weft was slightly thin. But I used them for glue ins anyways and I use two packs since I have short hair and it was very full. It is real human hair and the quality of the actual hair was great so I would assume it would be possible to dye as long as you know what you're doing.

I am very fair completed with light eyes and hair and I wear the light sheer. Not sure what the next deeper color would be. It really is sheer anyway, so I imagine it would blend in well if you went with the medium. My skin is so pretty withthis makeup, I love it's hydration.

Either will do fine. In the quilt there is green, rose, purple, maroon, yellow, etc. with a white base. I use sheers on a double rod, cream against the window and pink over them. I can easily switch to green or whatever to alter the mood/effect. Really, I could have written that you can freely use any color.

bleaching them will ruin them. and...these can only be washed in cold soapy water there for dye will not stay in plus they are black and you can't dye black red. The reason I know these things is because I have worked at a dry cleaners for 11 yrs and I wear these at work every day as well.

I have always hand washed my embroidery pieces in a mild solution of laundry detergent. I don't know if the Rit will work or not. This Rit is used to brighten dull whites. I wouldn't risk it.
