Far out! 🌈 This kaleidoscope craft is a groovy throwback to the 1960s and 1970s (but we know it’s still very popular today) 👀

Materials

You could buy a tie-dye kit (we recommend our Color and Craft Tie Dye kit 😉), but if you prefer to use supplies already on hand, here’s what you need:

A white or light-colored T-shirt
Assorted colors of one-step fabric dye, mixed according to the manufacturer’s instructions
White vinegar
Rubber gloves
Aprons or smocks
Plastic squirt bottles. You can reuse clean mustard or ketchup squeeze bottles. Measuring cups also work in a pinch.
Zip ties, hair ties, or rubber bands
Large, sealable plastic bags
Trash bags
Bucket
Plastic sheeting or tablecloths
Rags or paper towels

Directions

1. Gather your supplies.
2. Protect your workspace by laying down the tablecloths and sheeting. Wear gloves, smocks, and aprons to protect your clothes.
3. Mix fabric dye, following the step-by-step directions provided by the manufacturer.
4. Pre-soak your T-shirt in a mixture of one part vinegar and one part warm water for an hour.
5. Dye your shirt by following the instructions for your chosen pattern.
6. Place your T-shirt into a resealable plastic bag. 7. Remove the shirt after one to two hours if you prefer pastel tones. For a brighter color, allow the dye to process for at least eight hours and up to 24 hours.
8. Once the dye sets, wear your gloves and pull the shirt out of the plastic bag. Leave the rubber bands on, and rinse under a cold tap until the water runs clear.
8. Remove the rubber bands and run the shirt through the cold-water wash cycle in your washing machine to remove the excess dye.
9. Allow the shirt to air dry, or toss it into the dryer on the lowest heat setting.
10. Clean up your work area and dispose of any unused dye.
11. Your far-out DIY tie-dye T-shirt is ready for compliments!
