Dyeing Feet
Post Number:#1

Howdy yall. I have been a very busy girl lately. LOL. Been working my day job, now a night job. Finally got a tiny promotion. 
Been keeping our rabbitry afloat, and getting geared up for the Spring swap meet. 
I finally got around to drying my first set of feet, tails, and ears a few days ago and are getting ready to make them into charms. I was wondering how to dye some of them? Maybe blue, red, or green. 
Should that have been done prior to drying or can it be done now? 
Here's a couple pictures. LOL:
Stay well yall,
Cathy

I thought I responded to this but I guess I didn't.
I've only used white feet for dyeing and I used Ritz fabric dye that I found at Walmart. I put a teaspoon of dye (adjust as needed) with a bit of vinegar in a pint mason jar and add the feet. I generally let them soak for about an hr. You can dye them after they are dry, you just have to be sure to them again thoroughly after dyeing. I use my dehydrator.
