Answers:
What do you want your organic powdered dye for!? Usually people asking this question want to make colored smoke bombs!. You can't use just any organic dye powder to color a smoke bomb!. Many organic dye powders will just burn up, so you don't see their color at all!.
"Organic" dye is not at all the same thing as "natural" dye!. In chemistry, "organic" merely means molecules that contain carbon!. Synthetic Rit dye powder, made from petroleum products, contains an organic chemical dye!. You can buy that anywhere, even the grocery store!. It's diluted with large amounts of non-dye substances, such as salt and detergent!. If you want a more concentrated organic chemical dye, try a good mail-order dye supplier such as Aljo Mfg in New York!. Grapevine is unlikely to have a store selling concentrated dyes!. Dallas has one, Asel Art Supply, which sells Procion MX dyes!.
For natural dye, you have to look a lot harder than for organic dye!. You probably will not be able to find any local source!. You can mail-order good natural dye extract powders from Aurora Silk and from Earthues!. They are far more expensive than synthetic dye powders, and they require more skill and knowledge to apply correctly!.
You might be able to buy smoke bomb dyes from a local fireworks supplier!. Otherwise, you can buy smoke dyes by mail from a company called Skylighter!.com!. Be careful that no one breathes any of the colored smoke, because the dyes are highly unlikely to be safe for ingestion by humans in any form, including breathing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
