Mini Tie Dye Kits

Description

What's one of the quickest ways to totally transform a boring white t-shirt? Tie dye! True, it's a little messy, but it's endlessly fascinating to kids (and even adults) to unwrap that newly dyed shirt and check out the colorful results! If you've never tried tie dye, these inexpensive kits make it easy, fun, and there's enough dye to transform multiple shirts. There are three different kits to choose from: Funky Groovy, Camo and Indigo. Funky Groovy produces traditional brightly colored tie dye (with magenta, yellow and turquoise dye) and dyes up to 5 shirts. Camo produces a unique pattern of olive green, bronze, and black and dyes up to 4 shirts. My personal favorite, Indigo, produces a gorgeous blue dye and dyes up to 15 shirts (no, that's not a misprint!). We've tested the indigo kit in the office and at a baby shower (one kit can dye a lot of onesies!) and we were all impressed at the simple process and gorgeous results. Camo and Funky Groovy kits can dye cotton, linen, rayon and hemp. Indigo can be used on any natural fiber. All kits include dye, one pair of gloves, rubber bands, and instructions with folding suggestions for dyeing inspiration.
