An example of color coordinated clothing using Dyes.
Wood armor shown dyed with all obtainable dyes except Team Dye.
“
My dear, what you're wearing is much too drab. You absolutely must take a lesson in dyeing your tired attire!
— The Dye Trader
Dyes are items that can be placed in the "dye slots" of a player's inventory to alter the colors and/or textures of equipped armor, vanity items, and accessories. The Dye Trader NPC sells two dyes (Silver Dye and Brown Dye) as well as the Dye Vat (5 GC). The other dyes must be crafted using the Dye Vat or obtained through trading in Strange Plants to the Dye Trader. Primary crafted dyes can be further combined to craft Bright, Gradient, and Compound dyes. There are (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) 119 / (Old-gen console version) 68 different dyes in the game (118 / 67 on single-player worlds, as Team Dye is not available in single-player worlds). Some dyes will make sprites visible in complete darkness, most of which are Strange Dyes.
If the Critter Shampoo(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) is dyed (by placing a dye in the respective accessory dye slot), the dye will be applied to all of the player's minions.
Dyes are not available on the Nintendo 3DS
version, due to the unavailability of pixel shaders.
Basic Dyes
All basic dyes are crafted at the Dye Vat. Their crafting ingredients (not including Silver Dye and Brown Dye) can be found growing as background objects in the natural world or are guaranteed drops from special enemies. All dye plants show on the map. None of the Basic Dyes are visible in complete darkness.

- Makes the player completely white.
- Disappears from the inventory as soon as you load into a World if spawned into the inventory via an inventory editor.
- Its associated shader,
ColorOnly , is used internally to draw player outlines on the minimap.
- Its sprite is a copy of the Unicorn Wisp Dye.

Notes
- All vanity items will benefit from dye, except for the Familiar shirt and pants. The colors shown when wearing the Familiar set can be changed using a Dresser instead.
- The Familiar Wig, on the other hand, will change the appearance of the player's hair, when dyed. If the dye has effects, like the Bloodbath Dye, for example, will give the player the special effects (your hair will have blood drip from it, in the Bloodbath Dye's case). This allows for interesting dye/hair dye colors, effects and combinations.
- When transformed into a werewolf or a merfolk by the Neptune's Shell, Moon Charm, Moon Shell, or Celestial Shell any dye placed in the dye slots will color the werewolf or merfolk form's head, torso, and legs as if they are vanity items.
- The dye crafting materials found naturally-placed can be placed again manually by players (e.g. as decoration) excluding the Pink Prickly Pear. Green and Teal Mushrooms, as well as the Sky Blue Flower, can be placed on any blocks. Orange Bloodroot must be hung from the underside of any block. Lime Kelp must be submerged in liquid. When they are placed, they occupy space as one tile, even though most of them look larger or taller than one tile (same happens to Strange Plants). Enemy-dropped dye crafting materials cannot be placed (Red/Cyan/Violet Husks, Purple Mucus, Black Ink).
- Basic and Combined Dyes only affect the hue of an armor's color, but not the saturation level (i.e. how vibrant the color is). This means that armor and clothing that are dull in color, such as Ninja set, Necro armor, and Reaper set are relatively unaffected by these dyes. Compound Dyes, however, override an armor's color completely, so they do not have the same problem.
- Some white-/silver-colored clothing items, such as the Mrs. Claus Heels, will not dye properly with a basic dye but will take on the desired color when a combination that features Silver Dye is applied.
- (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Dyes with a small blue orb in their icon have a unique animation.
- (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) The lid of a dye container seems to indicate some things about the type of dye:
- A dark gray lid indicates basic dyes
- A silver lid indicates bright dyes
- A blueish gray lid indicates multicolored/gradient dyes, with a deeper blue lid for intense dyes
- A checkered lid indicates a compound dye, with dark being "[...] and Black", light being "[...] and Silver", and bluish being "[...] Flame and [...]"
- A green lid indicates glowing
- A gold lid indicates the dye is reflective
- A purple lid indicates animated dyes or other special effects
- For unknown reasons, Black and White Dye falls under this category.
- A red lid is reserved for Team Dye
- Dye also changes the appearance of the player's helmet on the map.
- Some dyes that have an animation – such as the Living Flame dye or Phase Dye – can cause mounts, Minecarts, and the Wisp in a Bottle to appear invisible.
- For some armors (such as Meteor armor), the trails will reflect the color of the dye. This means that if the player has Blue Dye, Pink Dye, and Yellow Dye on an armor, it will split to where it shows trails of the three colors.
- Oddly, there is no "White Dye", however, Bright Silver can sometimes be an alternative.
- The compound dyes have a different inventory sprite on
Old-gen console version, showing one normal sized bottle with colored dye next to a small bottle with Black or Silver Dye.

Tips
- All dyes and items used to create them sell for 20 SC, so a beginning character should pick them up whenever encountered to sell them even if they are not interested in the dye itself.
- To craft thirteen ((Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)) / three ((Old-gen console version)) of each dye (one for each dye slot, including combined and compound dyes), it takes:
- 104 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 24 (Old-gen console version) each of Red Husks, Green Mushrooms, Teal Mushrooms, Blue Berries, Purple Mucuses, Violet Husks and Pink Prickly Pears;
- 156 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 36 (Old-gen console version) each of Orange Bloodroots, Lime Kelps, Cyan Husks and Sky Blue Flowers;
- 208 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 48 (Old-gen console version) Yellow Marigolds;
- 247 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 48 (Old-gen console version) Black Inks;
- 403 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 75 (Old-gen console version) Silver Dyes (costing 4 PC3 GC (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 75 GC (Old-gen console version));
- 13 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 3 (Old-gen console version) Team Dyes (costing 13 GC (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 3 GC (Old-gen console version), multiplayer-exclusive);
- 52 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Brown Dyes (costing 52 GC);
- 130 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Pink Gel;
- 260 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Crystal Shards.
- (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) It takes at least 170 Strange Plants to obtain 15 of each dye (3 dye per plant) reward for 13 dye slots (likely much more, since obtaining many repeat rewards from the Dye Trader is common).
- To craft only one of each dye, if the player does not want to repeat any, it takes:
- 8 each of Red Husks, Green Mushrooms, Teal Mushrooms, Blue Berries, Purple Mucuses, Violet Husks and Pink Prickly Pears;
- 15 each of Orange Bloodroots, Lime Kelps, Cyan Husks and Sky Blue Flowers;
- 16 Yellow Marigolds;
- 19 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 16 (Old-gen console version) Black Inks;
- 31 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 25 (Old-gen console version) Silver Dyes (costing 31 GC (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) / 25 GC (Old-gen console version));
- 1 Team Dye (costing 1 GC, multiplayer-exclusive);
- 4 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Brown Dyes (costing 4 GC);
- 10 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Pink Gel;
- 20 (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Crystal Shards.
Trivia
- It was going to be possible to apply dyes to weapons. The feature was later scrapped because the particle and dye systems did not work very well with it.[4]
- If not hunting for either specifically, and a mechanical boss has already been defeated, it is more likely that one will acquire the Living Rainbow Dye before the Rainbow Dye due to Rainbow Dye's complex crafting tree.
- The fact that the Rainbow Dye is crafted with Yellow, Cyan and Violet dye instead of Red, Green and Blue dye might be a reference to widespread use of the CMYK color model in printing industries.
- The effect of the Hades dyes are a reference to the character Hades in Disney's 1997 animated musical fantasy film Hercules.

History
- Desktop 1.2: Introduced.
- Items that were called dyes previously for crafting have been changed to thread.
- Switch 1.4.0.5.5: Fixed an issue where most dyes would cause the accessories, armor, etc. they are equipped on to appear invisible.
