- 1). Fill the wash basin or stainless steel sink with hot water. Use one gallon of water for each yard of fabric.
- 2). Mix in one 16 oz. packet of fabric dye powder. Choose a color that is darker than the current color of the curtains. You can find fabric dye in craft and hobby supply shops.
- 3). Add the salt and vinegar and stir. These two ingredients will enhance the brightness of the color.
- 4). Dunk the curtains into the hot, dyed water. Saturate them completely and let them soak for 10 minutes.
- 5). Use a long plastic spoon to agitate the curtains by twisting them around in the water.
- 6). Rinse the curtains in cold running water until the water runs clear. Hang to dry.
