my family is into disc golf right now and I don't play but I have been dyeing some discs for them! this is the latest one
Pulled this during the peak yesterday!
Finishing up my most recent disc dyes, we went to my latest go-to color combo of green, purple, and black. The first cell pull was pretty adorable with a spriggan decal, if a bit muddy. The neon royal purple bleeds across other colors, as I saw in the second cell pull.
Being a clear disc, it didn't pop like I hoped, so then I coated the underside in the neon green. It toned down the bleeds a bit, while making a world of difference.
And lastly, this lotion bed dye was one screw up after another. It had bubble white spots, the dye didn't touch a large ring around the outside, when I did the black border it got all over the disc from gods know what, and when I patched the white spots I forgot to rinse it for a few days so the black patches are much darker than the rest. It's not terrible for all that, just very flawed. This pic was from when I did the border, so that's not its final form. You can definitely see the dye bleed in it.
My partner picked up disc golf about a year ago and some of our friends additionally picked up disc dyeing. As any craft wench does, I had to try.
First bed was cool, but was an Innova d-line. Doesn't take dye well at all. First couple of dyes were failures for this reason.
After that I used a different texture disc and had an ooooh moment.
Also tried a vinyl sticker I had lying around, those are fun.
There were some bubbles so it got patched with orange to make it less camouflaged in grass.
I picked up more used discs locally and went nuts.
After some success, I decided to try a cell bed. Of course I had to try for a rainbow, more color=better art, right?
My partner had told me to go for bright colors, "Pixie puke and unicorn shit". Alas, this was exactly what I got. The second did come out better, but was still too muddy for my tastes.
More pics later.
