Tye Dye shirts!!!!!

Spiral Design

There are many different techniques for making a tye dye shirt. And all ways make a completely different style/ design which is what I like most about tye dying shirts and no two tye dye shirts turn out the same. There are many different ways to make your shirt unique and creative like the spiral design or diagonal design and many more. Some skills and equipment that are needed is a plain white t-shirt, rubber bands, gloves, dye bottles, and a Flat covered work surface. First you need to get your t-shirt damp then form it to your desire based off the design you want then you rubber band your t-shirt to keep in place. After that you will dye each section between two rubber bands with the colors of your choice, now you have to let your shirt sit for a few hours until you can rinse it out. Finally after you wait you can rinse the dye out of your shirt, (it will be very messy and most likely stain surfaces). I have found it is easiest to rinse your shirt in a laundry room sink. After you rinse your shirt you have to wash it in the washer ALONE with a small amount of detergent and run threw dyer alone also. Now you should have a completed tye-dye shirt to your liking.
