Sharpie Tie Dye Shirts
SUPPLIES and Directions
SUPPLIES and Directions
- Sharpie Markers in Blue, Red, And Yellow I recommend using a light blue! The dark blue doesn’t mix as well with other colors.
- Plain White T-shirts or T- shirt fabric
- Large Embroidery Hoop (10-Inch)
- Eye Droppers
- Plate
- Small Bowl
- Rubbing Alcohol
- Step One Use the embroidery hoop to tighten a section of fabric at the front of the shirt
- Step Two Use your red, yellow, and blue Sharpies to draw all over the shirt. Add a good layer of color. For the best color mixing demonstration you can use bull’s-eye designswith alternating red, yellow, and blue circles.
- Step Three When the design is complete, slip a plate inside the shirt under the embroidery hoop to catch any rubbing alcohol that may seep through.
- Step Four Pour rubbing alcohol into a small bowl. Using an eye dropper begin dropping rubbing alcohol on the t-shirt. If you have bull’s-eye designs drop the alcohol in the center of each bull’s-eye. Within seconds you will see more colors appear! Green, orange and purple should be visible as the ink bleeds and mixes with the other colors.
- Step Five Get that t-shirt really saturated! Alternatively use the rubbing alcohol in a controlled manner to bleed and blend only certain parts of the shirt. Now let dry.
- Step Six Once it’s dry remove the embroidery hop and iron your shirt.
