DIRECTIONS:
- Wash and dry t-shirt, pre-washing the shirt will help hold tie-dye colors better. Following the instructions on the packaging, wet the t-shirt then flatten shirt onto workstation. Starting from the center of the shirt, twist fabric into a tight coil. Using three rubber bands create six sections (rubber bands overlap in the center). Place shirt on a cooling rack. For easy clean up line a cookie sheet with tin foil under the rack.
- Using pink, yellow and periwinkle fill each bottle to the line on the side of the bottle. Shake until powder dissolves. Pour one color into each section. Flip shirt over and repeat using the same color in the same section as the front of the shirt. Place shirt into zip lock bag and let sit for 6-8 hours.
- Rinse shirt until water is clear. Wash shirt alone on cold and large load with a small amount of laundry soap. Dry
