Tie Dye Craft

Tie Dying is a fun activity you can enjoy with your little one. You can dye all sorts, like shirts, jumpers, socks – even shoes! You will need: Instructions:

• Fibre-reactive dye • Plain white cotton T-shirts • Soda ash • Rubber bands or strong string • Buckets and/or squeeze bottles (1 per colour) • Plastic tablecloths • Rubber gloves and a dust mask • Old plastic bags or cling lm

1. Gather your supplies and set up your work area. Prewash your garments with detergent. 2. Mix your dyes as package instructions. Pre-soak your garment in a soda ash solution, if necessary. 3. Fold or crumple your fabric to create the design. Secure the folds with rubber bands or string. 4. Apply the dye solution with squeeze bottles, sponges or paintbrushes. Or, dip the fabric in buckets of dye. 5. Wrap the garments in cling lm or place them in plastic bags. Let the dye set up for at least 6-8 hours, or preferably for 24 hours in a warm spot. 6. Rinse in cold water, and then unfold and rinse in lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Wash separately in the washing machine with detergent. SAFETY TIPS: Work outside, wear old clothes/apron & rubber gloves. Wear a dust mask when mixing soda ash or dye powders.
