Store bought tie dye

On my second attempt to find a good tie dye, I bought a kit at Wal-Mart and got some packages of white t-shirts, tank tops, and shorts for the kids to try.

The insturctions were very easy, and you just add water to the already powder filled squirt bottles. It was very kid friendly. And the kids had a BLAST making their own shirts.

Here are their results. They turned out MUCH better than my kool-aid attempt!

Tie Dye with Kool Aid

My daughter wants to tie dye some things.. so I went online to see if there were ways to use homemade dye...

I found a few recipes and thought I'd start out trying the most simple. Kool Aid.

I used some baby onsies I had on hand and tied them off with rubberbands in a couple different patterns.

Mix 1 packet koolaid with 1 ounce vinegar.
Stir until Koolaid is dissolved.
Dip rubberbanded parts into mixture.
Dry.

Press.
Wash individually.

Dry on HIGH heat.
To be honest, I wasn't happy with the results. It just looks like someone spilled kool-aid all over a onsie. But I like how the color spread on the left onsie. Plus, they smell like cotton candy! Take that one either way!

At least I'm only out $2 for the 2 packets of kool-aid. If anyone else has better luck, let me know!
