Watch the video above for complete instructions as I show you step by step how to make this shirt or closely follow the steps below.
Dampen your shirt before you begin. You can run it under your sink and wring it out or mist it with a spray bottle
First you will fold your shirt in half.
Print out the attached pattern for your shirt design. You may need to reduce or enlarge it on your copying machine to fit your shirt. You can find it here.
Sketch on the placement of the eyes, nose, and mouth.
Carefully bind the nose around the marked line using rubber bands.
Now wrap around the eye area tightly.
Carefully pinch around the outline of the skull.
Now add the zip tie along your bunched up skull outline.
Layout out your baking rack and shake up the black and purple tie dye for one minute each and apply right above the rubber bands. Just use a small amount. You don't want it to bleed past the bottom of the rubber band.
Now add just a few drops along the line you marked for the mouth.
Carefully pinch around the outline of the skull.
Now add the zip tie along your bunched up skull outline.
Layout out your baking rack and shake up the black and purple tie dye for one minute each and apply right above the rubber bands. Just use a small amount. You don't want it to bleed past the bottom of the rubber band.
Now add just a few drops along the line you marked for the mouth.
Add some black dye underneath the zip tie. Just squeeze right below the zip tie. You don't want too much dye around the zip tie, because it will bleed into your skull face.
Just below it add purple. If you wanting the shirt to look exactly like the shirt above you need to leave white in between the purple and black
Now add black dye to the bottom portion.
Let the dye set for 6-8 hours minimum. If you are wanting to have the colors be even more vibrant, leave overnight before you rinse.
Rinse out the dye in the sink until the water runs clear. Then pop it into the washer by itself using colder water and dry in dryer.
Now you have a cool shirt to wear for all your spooky festivies and beyond!

Are you supposed to draw skull on both sides of the shirt or just one? I've tried this doing something wrong.do the pleat fold just line up into straight line by just folding along the line you drew or is there certain way to get it to line up?
