How to Make
Step One: Prep the supplies and shirt: Fill the plastic bottles with water and dye. Fold the t-shirt in an accordion fold, like a fan. This will help create white banding when the dye is applied.
Step Two: Gather the folded t-shirt into bunches, about 1.5 inches apart. Secure the bottom edges with rubber bands.
Step Three: Squeeze one color of dye on each bunch, being careful to stay within the confines of the rubber-banded sections.
Step Four: Cut the rubber bands and rinse the shirt. After washing and drying the t-shirt on “delicate” wash and dry settings, print the decal on iron-on paper and follow the instructions on the paper’s box to add to the t-shirt.
Kids will be zahramazed at their magical designs!
