Dyed Wedding Accessories are the perfect way to incorporate those wedding color ideas you've come up with. Any color will pop in contrast to that beautiful white gown.

Materials:

• White Flower Girl Gloves
• Measuring cup & spoon
• Disposable shallow plastic container (6-cup)
• Rubber gloves

Instructions: 

1. Prewash bridal accessories by hand in mild soapy water and rinse. This will remove any finishes that may interfere with dye absorption.
    
2. Cover your work surface with a plastic cover.
    
3. Wearing rubber gloves, shake Aquamarine liquid dye bottle and measure ½ cup dye into a disposable plastic container. Add 4 cups very hot water (140° F); stir well.  Note: Test dye color by dipping a scrap of fabric or paper towel in dye solution. If color is too light, add more dye; if color is too dark, add more water.
    
4. Immerse wet bridal accessories in dye solution. Stir continuously and check color frequently. Remove when desired color is achieved.
    
5. Rinse bridal accessories until water runs clear. Wash in warm water with mild detergent, rinse and dry.
