Tye Dyeing! :D

Okay. I can't spell. <<; or it doesn't look right at least.

So. Origininally i had bought this flat rope stuff, but it didn't look like the right color and it wasn't very pretty... or at least it doesn't seem right... So i went to a store today in Fairfax (This GIANT Jo-Ann that Micah told me about) and i actually found a color fabric that i liked for the blue of the middle piece of material. (Yay!)

Before, mom had brought up this idea of getting like twisted rope stuff and dyeing it, but i was like "omg, that's going to be too hard... there's too many different colors... yatayatayata" Buuut with some erging from Micah i decided to try to get white twisted rope and dying it. Problem being-- the only dye was like ROYAL BLUE. Which is definately not the color that i needed.

So, i thought about sharpie dyeing it with that one colored sharpie.

That one; the one with the weird yellow circle around it. But then we realized that we'd have to buy an entire set in order to buy it and neither of us actually had ever sharpie dyed.

We began to look into using a water based paint, and dying it. But then again there truely are no tutorials on that <<; so that began to be a bad option.

Lastly, we were looking at Micheals to see if there were any other types of fabric dyes and we found tye dye turquoise which looked right. Then we decided if we had to buy the whole damn kit we might as well tye dye some shirts too (and i convinced teddy to buy us a set of three).

I'll post pictures when they've been washed and everything but we ended the day with a swim in Austen's pool (THANKS AUSTEN!), and watching Princess Mononoke.

Good day.
