Gum Arabic is a water soluble, non-toxic, and colourless. In fact gum Arabic is a food additive often used in processed foods as a thickener. It comes from the tree sap of Acacia nilotica. For these reasons providing you use it sensibly it is safe to use at home.
Neki of A movable feast has posted a tutorial on how to use a Gum Arabic the next time you do any resist dyeing try some experimenting.
