Water skin + Berries + Charcoal, take out anything else and don't use a water jar

Jar works fine if you've got it. Any water container will do in fact.

Ah, didn't know. I just use the bladders. Crank out 100s of dye

[Mmmmmister Crow!]

How long does it take to make the dye? I put in 10 wood, lit it, then came back later and it burned up without crafting the dye. I triple checked my ingredients.

[Kaleido]

Not very long.

Telling us what ingredients were triple checked might be helpful.

Needs wood or another fuel source, charcoal (probably the most common forgotten ingredient), the color choice (berries), and a full bottle or jar of water.

If I had to guess what you did wrong, I would say you tried making it in a campfire, as that is the only thing not specifically mentioned in the thread OP. Dyes and recipes need to be made in a cooking pot, not a campfire.

[Kaleido]

Dye takes 1 wood to cook, I believe.
You need 2 charcoal and 1 bladder/jar + the correct amount of berries. I use stacks.
Also, Mejo don't make dye.

You can dye a lot of things - armor, structures, saddles. As mentioned, select (left mouse click) the dye in your inventory and drag over the item in your inventory (or armor slot) to dye. Most things will then bring up a window allowing you to select the portion of the item to dye (cloth gloves are one thing I believe has only 1 color, may be others). Dyeing structures actually requires you to add the dye to a paintbrush then use the paintbrush on the structure (really painting rather than dyeing).

The forrest is at least better than the original green. But I agree, I was crossing my fingers for a teal.

If they do do a teal, I hope it's darker. I find almost all colors are better if they are made in a darker variant, instead of the crazy vibrant ones you usually see.
