I will show you a step-by-step process, of how to tie die a tee shirt at home the easy way. We are going to do this a little bit differently than the traditional tie-dye method. So if your ready and up for a little artistic challenge, follow along with me!
_shirt
_spray bottles
_paint or fabric paint
_ rubber bands?
Step 1. Get a shirt, ti tie-dye.
Step 2. You will need some paints of your color choice. I recommend fabric paints for optimal distribution and wear.
Step 3. You will need some spray bottles, to put the paint in. Fill the bottle 1/5 full of paint. One color in each bottle
Step 4. Fill the rest of the bottle with water.
Step 5. put the caps on and shake,shake,shake. make sure the paint is all mixed in.
Step 6. hang your shirt somewhere outside, (trust me if you don't want a mess you can't skip this step).
Step 7. twist the shirt and tie it with a rubber band, this will give you a spiral effect. (this is an optional step)
step 8. Spray the shirt front till you are satisfied with it.
Step 9. repeat steps eight and nine on back.
Step 10. Hang it somewhere and let it dry for 48 hours (indoors or out) before washing.
Tip: The closer the spray bottle is the more concentrated it will be, the farther back it is it finer mist.
