Tie Dye



Ingredients:

1 package Rit Dye
1 cup salt
water

Use clean white t-shirts. Wash t-shirt beforehand so that the dye will adhere better. Mix Rit Dye according to instructions. You may want to make it a little more concentrated with hot water. Add the salt and dissolve. The salt keeps the color from bleeding out. The solution can be mixed in an old ice cream pail, or you can fill spray bottles for spraying on the shirt. Using rubber bands, tightly wrap bands on the shirt to create a bullseye effect. Squeeze the excess liquid back in the pail. Hang on hangers or dry on a tree. The use of rubber gloves and old clothing is recommended.
