Tie Dye and Teens

The Cranky Queen loves tie dye clothing...and Prince Logan has inherited that fondness for the "creative" flair for tie dye...Pictured above is Prince Logan with his high school girl friend, Princess Allie, modeling their very own hand~made tie dyed t-shirts...
 Today, there are kits available at local craft stores and WalMart that give you step-by-step instructions on the various methods of tie dying...but when I was a kid, it was rubber bands, vinegar & Rit!

 Allie carefully affixing the rubber bands
 "Squirting of the dye"
 The wait....
More Waiting....



...and wah lah!  Washed and ready to wear~

















I found a great website titled The Tie Dyed Shop.  Check this great shirt out.

STAY CALM & TIE DYE SOMETHING!

  1. I love the tie-dyed shirts. I love that you did it the old-fashioned way too. I remember doing it that way growing up. Thanks for sharing at DIYbyDesign's Sizzle into Summer party.

  2. Hi Tiffany,
    I loved tie dye when I was a teenager too - I can remember my mom being a bit freaked out over the possible impending disaster, with all that dye. But my T-Shirts turned out cool - at least to me. ;)

    Your son and his GF are so cute! Love how theirs turned out, so much fun.

    Happy Rednesday!

  3. FUN WAY FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS TO SHARE TIME TOGETHER. THE SHIRTS TURNED OUT NICELY.
