Start with a plain white T
Not really sure there is a proper way to "do" this part....we took containers and spread the fabric over them so it would be tight. Like you're making a canvas.
Grab a Sharpie and start drawing....
Add a little rubbing alcohol and that's it! (drop the alcohol on pretty slowly, don't soak it all at once) Pretty cool, huh? Ky and I had a blast doing this last Saturday when Layton was gone.
The front side all finished...I think next time we may try to just color the whole shirt and then add alcohol, making it look more like real tie dye. Maybe we'll skip the containers and just draw all over the whole thing. Once you have the shirt done put it in the dryer for a few mins on low heat....alcohol is flammable so don't set it too high. After that your shirt is ready to wear - it can be washed and dried just like normal clothes now!
