Your crt.5 is very beautiful
David, Thanks! I was a little nervous to dye them, but after some good advice from the forum members, I decided to try it. I left them in the dye for 1 hr. I used almost a whole bottle of dye..probably a lot of waste, but, for a $4- bottle of dye, it was worth the end results.

Don't forget to put a little white vinegar into the water before heating the water. The vinegar opens the pores of the plastic. A tip from another member. ( I used a total of 4-5oz. total )
