This was AMAZING!!! It worked great!! Especially since i used pomegranates, lol XD I didn't have actual tie-dye paint with me so i used a full pomegranate and it turned into a lovely lilac/lavender colour. Thanks for this vid!!!
I put a faded denim color on only 1/2 of the shirt on both the front and the back. If I put a different color on the other 1/2 of the shirt on the front and back - then everywhere you see the white would be that other color.
A customer wanted me to make them a black and white swirl and it got me thinking about doing a rainbow swirl but 50 shades of Gray style to where is looks like a rainbow on a black and white tv how would you go about that and do you think it would work
You could. Just make sure to neutralize your bleach with a 1 part hydrogen peroxide and 10 part water solution. Otherwise, the bleach will continue to damage your fabric.
Absolutely! Just put your bleach solution in a squirt bottle and put it on only 1 half of the spiral. Just don't forget to neutralize your bleach with a 1:10 hydrogen peroxide solution after you are finished with the bleach to avoid the bleach continuing to damage the fabric.
1 part hydrogen peroxide (the kind you get in the Pharmacy section of your local store) to 10 parts water. I usually mix it in a bowl and then put my shirt down inside the bowl and let it sit for awhile (usually about 30 minutes or so). Then I rinse it out and throw it in the washing machine. It may bubble in the beginning - don't be surprised - it's perfectly normal.
I usually dye my shirts dry because I get better dye saturation. It doesn't matter as much though on a tie like this one. It is more noticeable on a thicker tie like a mandala. If the shirt fibers are already fully saturated with soda ash water - they aren't as eager to absorb or soak up the dye. If they are dry - they are quick to wick up the dye and saturate the fibers with dye.
Yes - You can apply bleach to only 1 side of the spiral. Make sure you neutralize your bleach with a 1:10 solution of hydrogen peroxide and water though. Otherwise, the bleach will continue to eat away at the shirt and cause holes.
Thank you! I have another video that gives tips on keeping the white area white during washout. Here's a link to that video if you'd like to check it out. The tips for washout are toward the end of the video. ua-cam.com/video/P_CgohEZhC4/v-deo.html
I usually wait for about 24 hours before I wash out my shirts. They need time at a warm temperature (above 70 degrees Fahrenheit) for the dye to properly bond with the fabric.
I use a Procion Fiber Reactive Dye. Here is a link to where I purchased the dye used on this shirt. Dye: Faded Denim from Dharma Trading Company: www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html?lnav=dyes.html
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "leaking dye design." The dye will try to creep or leak over to the white side regardless of whether the shirt is dry or damp - if that is what you are asking.
No, I used a white shirt and Procion Fiber Reactive Dye to make this shirt. Here is a link to the dye that I used. Faded Denim from Dharma Trading Company: www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html?lnav=dyes.html
How do you prevent the white colour to stay on shirt even tho u dyed it with blue? I tried blue/purple with different technique and when i unwrapped it there were white parts but after rinsing/washing it, white went purple... can you help me?
I don't wrap my shirt. I have a plastic tub that has a rack in it that I put the shirt on to process, and just put the lid on the tub. That way the shirt doesn't sit in any dye that might leak out of the shirt. When I rinse it out - I start with cold water and with it still tied, I rinse the side that is white first (to get the excess soda ash out of the shirt) before I start rinsing the side with the color. Then I use Dharma's textile detergent or synthrapol in my washing machine to avoid any backstaining from the color onto the white.
i am glad i have found your channel .. you do great work i love to watch from the beginning ... if you dont mind i would like to ask where you found the wire rack you are using in this video .. i like that it is on its own legs so to say .. i remember seeing somewhere but dont remember where .. info is appreciated and please keep up the beautiful work
Thank you so much! I've had that rack a long time, but I think I purchased it at Walmart in the kitchen section where the dish drainers and kitchen organization items are. It's really a handy for tie dyeing!
I usually dye my shirts when they are dry because I have an easier time getting good saturation. You can dye a shirt damp though. With this particular design, you will need to make sure you don't put on too much dye or it will overtake the white area. Don't panic if you see the dye creeping a little bit into the area you are leaving white - that is normal. If you oversaturate though the dye may overtake the entire white part of the shirt.
I usually let my shirts sit for about 24 hours before I rinse them out. They need to sit in a place that is above 70 degrees Fahrenheit though for the dye to activate properly.

Yes, it is. I usually dye most of my shirts when they are dry. For me it is easier to get better dye saturation on dry shirts. When a shirt is too damp with soda ash water, the fibers are already saturated and it's a bit more difficult to get good dye saturation. When it's dry, the shirt wicks up the dye really well and makes saturation a bit easier. Sometimes the dye will bead up on a dry shirt and not absorb the dye at first - if that happens, I just put a little bit of soda ash water in a spray bottle and lightly mist the shirt. Truthfully, since I've started using a Panda Spin Dryer to wring the soda ash out of my shirts before I start tying them - they are almost dry by the time I'm done with the tying process.
Yikes - keeping the white area is one of the toughest parts about this design. I batch my shirts that have white areas on racks instead of putting them in a bag. Then I rinse the white area with cold water before I rinse the colored area of the shirt. The cold water will hopefully get out most of the soda ash from the white area so that the color won't deposit onto it. If I end up soaking my shirt in hot water in the sink to get out any additional dye before I put it in the washing machine, I add a little bit of liquid Dawn dish soap to my water to try to keep the colors being soaked out from redepositing onto the white area. It's amazing how easy it is to get white areas in a tie dye when you don't want them - and how hard it is to keep them when you do...

Thanks for the legit instructions, tie-dyed at home as a kid but never understood how to make it so neat.
Thank you - I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Did this with my sisters, really quick easy and fun! Great Tutorial.
Great - I'm glad you liked it! Thank you!

That's really cool. I'm sure that turned out being a beautiful color.
Very pretty! It reminds me of that famous Japanese painting of an ocean wave
Thank you!
Japanese yooo lets gooooo!
That was an amazing beat drop at the end. Good show
Thanks!
Do you also add soda ash to the paint solution?What kind of colors are they?
No, I soak the shirt in a soda ash solution and then tie it. I mix the dye without soda ash. The dye I use is Procion Fiber Reactive Dye.
Very good! I loved ❤
Thank you! 😊
I see u did one side black if I did the other side a diff color would it be the same?
I put a faded denim color on only 1/2 of the shirt on both the front and the back. If I put a different color on the other 1/2 of the shirt on the front and back - then everywhere you see the white would be that other color.
Great tutorial. Can i please use a couple of images from your video in a tie dye workshop?
It’s so pleasing.... TY
I really like how this one turned out too - thanks!
Thanks I’m using this for school!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This is awesome!! I love it
Thank you!
A customer wanted me to make them a black and white swirl and it got me thinking about doing a rainbow swirl but 50 shades of Gray style to where is looks like a rainbow on a black and white tv how would you go about that and do you think it would work
I think you could just choose various shades of gray dye and apply them in pie shapes to your spiral. If you try it, let me know how goes.
Could I use the same method if I use a black hoodie and bleach?
You could. Just make sure to neutralize your bleach with a 1 part hydrogen peroxide and 10 part water solution. Otherwise, the bleach will continue to damage your fabric.
Can i dip a shirt in dye to coulour it?
Yes, I don't see why not.
@@FunEndeavors ok thank you
How long did you leave it all wrapped out before you rinsed it ?
About 24 hours.
Usan pintura acrílica o añelina?
I use Procion MX Fiber Reactive Dyes.
hello very great video for which side does the spiral, and the dye places it below or in the neck area
Thank you! I add the dye to the side of the spiral where the neck of the shirt is.
Hey could you do this when trying to bleach dye a black sweatshirt?
Absolutely! Just put your bleach solution in a squirt bottle and put it on only 1 half of the spiral. Just don't forget to neutralize your bleach with a 1:10 hydrogen peroxide solution after you are finished with the bleach to avoid the bleach continuing to damage the fabric.
Fun Endeavors what is a 1:10 hydrogen peroxide solution?
1 part hydrogen peroxide (the kind you get in the Pharmacy section of your local store) to 10 parts water. I usually mix it in a bowl and then put my shirt down inside the bowl and let it sit for awhile (usually about 30 minutes or so). Then I rinse it out and throw it in the washing machine. It may bubble in the beginning - don't be surprised - it's perfectly normal.
That turned out awesome! 💙
How does this video have any dislikes lol
Thank you!
@@FunEndeavors I just tried this with just bleach on a blue shirt....looks great! Thank you!
@@jaimereynolds258 That's awesome - I bet it looks cool!
What is the ration of dye powder and water?
The color is Faded Denim from Dharma Trading Company. I used 2 tsp. of dye in 1 cup of water.
Why the shirt is dry not damp? Thanks for the answer!
I usually dye my shirts dry because I get better dye saturation. It doesn't matter as much though on a tie like this one. It is more noticeable on a thicker tie like a mandala. If the shirt fibers are already fully saturated with soda ash water - they aren't as eager to absorb or soak up the dye.

Can I do the same thing with a black shirt and bleach?
Yes - You can apply bleach to only 1 side of the spiral. Make sure you neutralize your bleach with a 1:10 solution of hydrogen peroxide and water though. Otherwise, the bleach will continue to eat away at the shirt and cause holes.

Nice tuturial
Thank you!
My dear please help Why aren't the rubber bands white underneath?
On this shirt, the rubber bands hold the folds in place but they aren't tight on the shirt. Therefore, they allow the dye to move freely under them.
@@FunEndeavors my dear The dye was scattered and the T-shirt was the same color What is the reason for that?
@@choiceme.cm1 I'm not entirely sure what you mean. I put the dye on one side of the front of the shirt and on the same side of the back of the shirt.
Do you wash it out immediately or do you have to wait a while?
I usually wait for about 24 hours before I wash out my shirts. They need time at a warm temperature (above 70 degrees Fahrenheit) for the dye to properly bond with the fabric.
Wt type of colour is it?

do you only get the leaking dye design if the shirt is dry?
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "leaking dye design." The dye will try to creep or leak over to the white side regardless of whether the shirt is dry or damp - if that is what you are asking.
@@FunEndeavors thank you
Does it have to be soaked in soda ash?
Yes, soda ash is necessary for the dye to bond properly with the fabric. Otherwise, the dye will just wash out of the shirt.
Fun Endeavors ahhh okay thank you
