That is truly beautiful !!! You did a great job with adding lots of colour, but not overlapping, and having things get muddy looking. Very nice tutorial, and what a beautiful dress !!!!!
❤️Love ❤️ ❤️Love ❤️ ❤️LOVE ❤️ Very Pretty & Inspirational... Think I'm going to try. And your Bob Ross reference Cracked me up... He is the Gift that keeps on giving. Past his death... Just found you & subscribed gonna check out more of your vids... 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I think this is an absolutely amazing technique I can't believe I've never seen it before I think you did a great job designing it in its way and picking the colors turned out really wonderful I look forward to watching more videos from you I just subscribe great job
Great tutorial. I am an indigo Dyer and use the same folding techniques. I also wrap in spots using thread or floss. And I love adding some shibori stitching. I didn’t quite understand the technique you used on the top in the center. It looked accordion folded and then folded on itself. The results were fabulous. Please make follow up videos with the rest of the pieces you showed. I am definitely doing this to make fabrics to add to a quilt.
Very pretty I thought the dress came out very good I like the colors you chose and the pattern👍. I have a white dress that I plan on tie dying myself I hope mine turns out just as pretty as yours does😊
So beautiful! I got s 3 color kit like a month ago.. Now i have every color and we now dont have a white thing left in our house.. Ive done the sheets and everything! Today is my first attempt with ice!
Gorgeous. Did you know you can unzip the zip ties and save them? Get a tiny screwdriver or large sewing needle that fits into the end of the ziptie that you slip the long loose end into. Inside is a piece of plastic that holds and 'locks' the tie... press down on that and it releases the long end(so that you can pull it apart).... You don't have to cut your ties short, just reuse them. And you won't have to worry about accidentally cutting the fabric to release the ties.
WOW! That was great! I’d love to see what it looks like when someone is wearing it :) I have a quick question, if you wanted to keep an area white what would be the best way to do that with this technique that you used? Thank you, and thanks again for the great video. I’m looking forward to 2,3&4.
@@gardeningfamilies it's gorgeous! Did you design it yourself or did you use a pattern? Please say there's a pattern I can buy, lol! I love the raw hems. Perfect example of boho! Especially after the dye job!!!
I was kinda wondering the same. Was the top/chest area bound in with the skirt? As it looks like the binds don't go up that high. Absolutely Beautiful dress btw 😊
Wonderfull dress 🙂 I have a powdered dye, but I've been dyeing fabrics with boiling (and salt I think) Is that the same dye or this is another type of dye only for ice technic? The effect is the same, I just think that maybe this is the easier way to do it. Do you know if the type dye is the same?
There are fiber reactive dyes and there are hot water reactive dyes. According to the website I buy from, "Because of the heat requirement (dye baths should ideally be 130-150° F), these dyes work better for solid color "tub dyeing" than for colder water techniques like tie-dye & batik. BUT, you can use them for tie-dye & low immersion techniques if you batch (cure) them really warm, like all day in the sun under black plastic, or under an electric blanket (in the winter). More time makes up for less heat. Otherwise, use them just like our other Dharma Fiber Reactive (Procion type) dyes, only with longer curing times for low immersion techniques. We've gotten very good tie-dye results by curing them 24-48 hours in regular room temperatures actually, except that Blacks usually need more heat." So I would say that they are different in how you apply them, but you can get the same results.
I love it! :-D I wonder, the cyan/blue that came out in between, was that where your zip ties were? Is that sort of the neutral colour that comes out wherever the dye colour does not stick? Like, cause, the dress was originally white, right so.. ? :-)
What happens when you wash the linen in hot after dying? That’s what I’m concerned about. I’m going to dye some expensive white linen after I practice some.
@@miradonfbd Interesting. I'm not an expert on linen. I did not have shrinkage but I had worn and washed this dress for a few years before I decided to tie dye it.
hi! what kind of powder you use for this?, its the same powder for ice dye and liquid dye?. also do you know a technique that i can use to set the dye on the fabric?, when i wash up the fabric it came out with less color, look more white. thanks!
The link to the fabric is down below. It's from dharma trading, reactive procion dye. You pre-treat with a base. Wash with synthrapol. Also make sure to use a natural fabric. Polyester won't take the dye as well. The dharma trading.com people have more on their site.
I use artificial sinew and just pull tight - no knotting needed. When you wrap around and pull tight it creates it's own resist. My problem with cutting off ties is the accidental cutting of the material. :-(
Jude Sommerjones, do you have scissors with a tiny curved notch in one blade? Similar to scissors or snips used for suture removal. Definitely don't want to cut the underlying material when removing someone's stitches! Nurse's bandage scissors are also good; they have a "soft spot" that slips between skin & close-fitting bandages. I'd think either of those would help prevent cutting anything but the sinew.
johnnycage435 the are called procion dyes. They are made for cold water and they work great. I have the link in the description or one of the other comments.
I just tried ice dying for the first time and the fabric that was facing up and got the direct dye is very saturated and the back is barely dyed. Any suggestion as to what I could have done better? Maybe too little ice?
Jenni S. Sounds like it. That happened with the first sheet I did. It was a very thick cotton and the folds were also set wide apart. The whole back, inside the folds stayed white. So try more ice and/or making the folds closer and tighter.
One of the prettiest dresses I've ever seen ♥️ just beautiful.
Thank you! 😊
It came out beautiful! I love all of the color splits!
That is truly beautiful !!! You did a great job with adding lots of colour, but not overlapping, and having things get muddy looking. Very nice tutorial, and what a beautiful dress !!!!!
Stunning! I have some beloved linen pieces that have been stained, or have fabric paint. Can they still be tie dyed? Do they have to be white?
Stunning results, gorgeous dress! Great work and thank you, for sharing.
Ice-dye dress is very pretty cool! -- I like it very much.🤗🤗🤗👍👍
this is absolutely fantastic, thank you so much for showing us this!

Wonderful! I loved the happy little trees reference. Thanks for sharing the info as well, it is after all what brought me here.
If my waist was that small... I'd come "borrow forever" that dress!!!!!
Amazing!

Right before you mentioned Bob Ross I was thinking "I love her! She is winging it no mistakes just happy accidents style!" 😂✌❤ it came out GORGEOUS 😍
I am not one to wear tie dye, but your dress and the method leads me to rethink that idea. Maybe a nice pure cotton t shirt.

Also if you do Mandela’s could you show us a simple one.
I will try and tag you. Thanks so much for the response.

Thanks! Cutting the fabric has been a big problem for a lot of people. Good to know.
Mary Branham nahhh all that effort is worth the buck at dollar tree ✌
lauren laplume maybe it’s a good idea to minimize the use of plastic....
You had me at ..."ironing, ...but,... I'm not that kind of person.." !
This is beautiful and you should be very proud ❤
I really thought you were using too many colors to get a good result, but wow...that is gorgeous
I love this, great job!
Beautiful! I love it.
THAT IS FABULOUS!!!!!!!!
Wonderful results! Thanks !
Great! I can't wait to try it out. Where can I purchase the colors you used? Hope to hear from you soon!
www.dharmatrading.com
you have truly inspired me I am dying a dress for Toddstock!
What is Toddstock?
That is beautiful!!
Very cool. Going to try a sweater!
That is beautiful. I wonder if there would have been more intense resulting colors if the dye was placed directly on the fabric.
I’d look great wearing this Masterpiece
WOW! That was great! I’d love to see what it looks like when someone is wearing it :) I have a quick question, if you wanted to keep an area white what would be the best way to do that with this technique that you used? Thank you, and thanks again for the great video. I’m looking forward to 2,3&4.
To keep an area white you could wrap it in a plastic bag and tie it off, or plastic wrap. Just make sure the edges are secured.
OMG!! I LOVE THAT DRESS AND THE DYE JOB!! AWESOMENESS!!! Where did you get that dress?
I made the dress. Thank you!
@@gardeningfamilies it's gorgeous! Did you design it yourself or did you use a pattern? Please say there's a pattern I can buy, lol! I love the raw hems. Perfect example of boho! Especially after the dye job!!!
@@farrenrohana I don't have a pattern but it is based off of a medieval shift. This video comes close: ua-cam.com/video/QK4wwQlML8I/v-deo.html
Thats beautiful!!!
beautiful dress! what fold did you do for the top center of the dress? thx!
An accordion fold along a v. Kind of lucked out with the heart shape.
I was kinda wondering the same. Was the top/chest area bound in with the skirt? As it looks like the binds don't go up that high. Absolutely Beautiful dress btw 😊
So beautiful. Thank you for sharing
Beautiful 🎉
I LOVED THIS. Where do you get the dye from and where did you buy the dress from. Thank you. Great tutorial.
Got the dye from dharmatrading.com and I made the dress myself.
Thank you very much Christine. I LOVE the dress you made. Do you sell them? So many people commented that they love the style. Thanks again.
Gorgeous!!!
lol- iron it....not that kinda person... right on!
I love to iron!
yes that made me laugh too..i'm right there!
do you have a video that shows more of the method you use to arrange the dress in the tub after you have put tie wraps and rubber bands on?
Cyn Van Antwerp Sorry, no. But I will make sure to do that next video.
Looks great
Love it! Can you do this with polyester ?
Nicely done!!
amazing job! Love it
Oooh my gosh!!! 😍😍😍😍 I'd love to have a dress like this!!! Where can I find a dress like like you have in video to do this myself?
Lovely. Others put the dye directly on the material, ice cubes on top, what's the difference? It inspires me! Thanks.
Probably just the intensity of the inner part the color ribbon. I would think that dye on top gets more even distribution than the other way.
Very nice!
god it's beautiful 🦋🦋🦋
Beautiful!
Awesome where did you purchase paint

awesome job! you didn't use any turquoise??!
Katie Schultz no, the turquoise bleeds out from the purple!
@@gardeningfamilies that is SO COOL!! thanks for the answer :)
gorgeous
wow! very cool!
Amazing! Thanks for sharing. Great idea for next weekend. :-)
Thank you, liked your tutorial.
It's beautiful.
Really nice
GORGEOUS

Kjerstin Michaela yeah, the purple goes blue when it seeps under the zip ties
What happens when you wash the linen in hot after dying? That’s what I’m concerned about. I’m going to dye some expensive white linen after I practice some.
It maintains the color. Just make sure to treat it with the soda ash fixer before the process.
I’m more concerned about damage or shrinkage of the garment from the hot water.
@@miradonfbd Interesting. I'm not an expert on linen. I did not have shrinkage but I had worn and washed this dress for a few years before I decided to tie dye it.

Very pretty! How do you remove the zip ties? Do you have to cut them, or are they reusable?
You have to cut them. But you can also use synthetic sinew, which you could tie in a knot.
I use artificial sinew and just pull tight - no knotting needed. When you wrap around and pull tight it creates it's own resist. My problem with cutting off ties is the accidental cutting of the material. :-(

Christine Rosakranse What is sinew?

Yeah, that was just another tie on the chest
do you have videos on the other items you did? Love your dress...I am gonna try it!
