Easy Shibori Tie-Dye Techniques

 

HOLA SUMMERTIME! I am so stoked that it's hot outside and mosquitos are constantly swarming around me. Let's face it , SUMMERTIME in Louisiana can get pretty rough but thankfully I just created something that can make life stellar. SHIBORI TOWELS. I know what you are thinking, and if you are anything like me then you can visualize these in every room.

There are so many things you can do with these and I want to show you today! Did I mention this is a GREAT craft for kids! 

Let's get started.

Shibori Summer Sheets!

Summer is here and my bedroom needed a makeover! I've been doing a new tie-dye video every week and now it was time to give my bed some rainbow love!

Here is what you need:

Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Kit

PVC pipe, about 24" long

Rubberbands and twine or string
Scissors

Here is my video on how to tie-dye your sheets! My suggestion is to get at least 6-8 bottles ofr a queen set, that's what I did. I LOVE how my sheets turned out. I decided at the last minute to use some Tulip® Fabric Spray Paint™ and add stenciled designs...

Scrunch Dye Shirt DIY

Sometimes people only think of tie dye in bullseye and swirls; but the tie dye of today is much cooler and fashion forward. Here's one of the quickest and easiest ways to do tie dye on the fly that looks like you got it from the store! Once you try it you'll be hooked, we promise!

What you'll need for this project:
 – A 100% cotton tshirt
– Tulip One-Step Tie Dye in Fuchsia and Turquoise
– Spray bottle
– Surface cover

Play around with different colors of dye and different scrunching techniques for varied looks! This technique also works great with Tulip Fabric Sprays.
