Tea is used to dye all sorts of clothing and it is actually a very easy and inexpensive way to dye clothing. There are many books and even online tips on how to dye clothing with tea. And it is not just lace. You can dye towels, polyesters, laces and other clothing material. However it is important to note that tea works best on natural fibers. The tea gives it a vintage antique look and the process of dyeing is very simple. You are just submerging the fabric in enough tea. You can use black tea or even green tea. It is always best to start with light colored or white clothing so it stains easily.

Once you have brewed the tea, and let it cool, pour it into a bowl that’s the right size for the clothing. Submerge the lace clothing in the tea. Let it set for a few hours. Take the lace item out, let it dry. The lace should be the same color as the tea. You will want to rinse it, to get off the tea residue. Depending on the color and shade you want, you can use a darker tea and make a stronger brew.
