Please take extra care in working with fiber reactive dyes in dry powder form. The little powder particles are very irritating to the lungs. I do my Procion dying outdoors for the safety of kids and pets indoors… Some fiber artists who dye set up a safe indoor spot surrounded by wet newspaper to catch/absorb stray powder, and they may also don a dust mask or respirator. Enjoy your cool shades!

Have you noticed that some dyed lampshades change the color of the light, e.g. a red lamp shade emits a weird red light rather than normal, white light? Is the purpose of the silver lining to keep the dyed shade from turning the light a funny color?
