You Will Need:
~Old clothes (to wear while you work with the dye)
~A freshly washed white cotton T-shirt
~Some rubber bands or string
~Liquid or powder dye in a color you love
~Rubber or latex gloves
~A plastic bucket or bowl
~A plastic sheet or garbage bag
~A sink
~A pair of scissors

Step 1.
Set up area
Spread a the plastic sheet or garbage bag out.

Step 2.
Rubber band shirt
Bunch or fold up sections of the T-shirt, and wrap them tightly with the rubber bands or string. These will be the areas that will stay white after the shirt is dyed, forming a pattern.

Step 3.
Prepare dye
Prepare the dye in the bucket according to the manufacturer’s directions.

Step 4.
Dip shirt
Wearing gloves, dip the shirt or a section of it in the dye until it’s the color you want.

Step 5.
Squeeze & rinse
Squeeze out the excess dye, then rinse the T-shirt in the sink until the water runs clear.

Step 6.
Let dry
Leaving the rubber bands or string on, lay the shirt on the plastic sheet or garbage bag to dry. Outside is best.

Step 7.
Remove rubber bands
Remove the rubber bands or strings. It’s easiest to cut them with scissors.

Step 8.
Wash shirt
Before you wear it, wash your shirt in cold water alone or with clothing that’s the same color, since the dye may run. Be sure to accessorize with love beads and a peace sign.
