Ladybirds Experimental Tye Dyed Flowers .
- 1 white roses or any type white flower .
- 1 blue food colouring
- 1 red food colouring
- 1 yellow food colouring
- 1 green food colouring
- 1 any colour food colouring you like .
- 1 scissors or good thin sharpe knife .
- 1 shot glasses
- With the thin sharp knife or scissors , cut the stem lengthwise in half , going upwards , but do not cut it off the stem .
- Now using the same knife cut each stem half in half lengthwise up the stem so to make 4 even dangley bits of stem hanging from the rose .
- Place one of each food colouring per shot glass till each of the shot glasses are pretty full .
- Next place one piece of rose cut stem per food coloured shot glass , making sure the stems are emerged into the food colouring in the shot glasses .
- ( you may need to prop your rose up with something to balance it , i used my vase lol ) .
- Now set aside and leave it all sit for a few hours so that the food colouring can travel up the stem so to make the petals colourful .
- Once roses have changed colour , rinse the stem ends that were submerged in the food colouring and but off the 4 dangley bits to even up the stem .
- Place coloured flowers into a clean vase with clean water for people to see .
- Have fun .
