How to tie-dye

Step 1: Put the front of the garment face down on flat surface and find the center.




Step 2:  Twist the garment until it is twisted into a circle.





Step 3:  Secure the garment with rubber bands tightly.




Step 4:  Put the dye in a squeeze bottle and begin applying dye to your garment. Let garment sit for 24 hours to allow the dye to soak in. 






Step 5:  While the garment is still secured with rubber bands run under hot water until water runs clear.  Remove rubber bands and place garment in the washing machine with several black garments and wash on hot with detergent 3-5 times. This process ensures the dye is not going to bleed when washed with other clothes. 

You did it!!!!!!
