Over the past week, we have been making tie dye t-shirts for our upcoming Art Soiree. First we studied how to make effective tie dye patterns and then we decided what 3 colours we wanted to use on our t-shirts. Next we had to wet our t-shirts and ring them out so they were damp. Then, depending on what pattern we wanted to do, we wrapped our t-shirts with rubber bands. The spiral pattern was one of the most popular designs. After that, we put the t-shirts in our art sink and poured the die over the different parts of our shirts. Once we had finished, we put our wet t-shirts in a plastic bag and we left them for about 12-15 hours. Then Miss Hines rinsed our t-shirts and hung them up in our classroom to dry. Once they were dry, Miss H took them home and ironed them, ready to be hung for our Soiree on Friday. We think they look amazing! Come along and place a bid on Friday night.
