TIE DYE ACTIVITY:
MATERIALS:
Rubber gloves
Dye
Large nonreactive bowls
Nonreactive spoon
Salt
T-Shirts
Rubber bands
Marbles
Mild detergent
STEP 1
Gather your materials, don rubber gloves, and mix dye (following manufacturer’s
instructions). The bowl should be made of nonreactive material, such as glass or
enamel; choose a nonreactive spoon made of stainless steel or wood (don't use again
with food). Add a cup of salt to deepen the color if you like.
STEP 2
Bind fabric with rubber bands.
STEP 3
Immerse the garment in dye, and gently swish it around with a spoon. Remove when
the color is slightly darker than desired; this should take 5 to 20 minutes.
STEP 4
Rinse the fabric in warm and then cool water until water runs clear. Remove rubber
bands. Hand-wash with warm water, and rinse with cool water (or launder alone in a
washing machine). Wring in a clean old towel and then line-dry, or machine-dry on
the coolest setting. (Stewart, 2014)
