SUPPLIES & TOOLS:
- Tulip Two-Minute Tie Dye Kit
- 100% Cotton T-shirt (white)
DIRECTIONS:
- Wash as many white cotton T-shirts as you'd like to dye. Don't put them through the dryer. They should be damp.
- To make the double bubblegum pink shirt, we used the crumple technique.
- Lay out your shirt on your work surface and loosely crumple the fabric at first as shown.
- Gather the fabric together a little bit tighter and secure with a few elastic bands.
- Prepare your dyes according to the instructions in the kit.
- Apply the dye onto the shirt, making sure to do this on both sides.
- Place the dyed shirt into the microwave tray included in your kit and close it snugly. Put in your microwave and heat according to the guidelines in the kit - this will vary depending on your specific microwave's wattage and the size of your shirt.
- After microwaving, let the tray sit for 15 minutes to cool and for the dye to saturate. Then remove the shirt and snip off the elastic bands. Rinse the shirt under cool water.
