How to Tie Dye Shirts in a Heart Shape
The new Tulip kit above is enough dye for 6 people…or a lot of dye for one person to make rainbows with.
Have you ever wanted to know how to tie dye shapes? The project guide in the kit covers bulls eyes, swirls, squares and sunbursts. And I’ve got the heart shape covered:
Tie-Dye Heart Steps
1. Fold the shirt in half and use a fabric disappearing ink pen to mark half of a heart.
2. Starting at the “V” of the heart begin scrunching the shirt up following the line.
3. Continue scrunching the shirt until you reach the bottom of the heart. Hold tightly!
4. Take a rubber band and wrap it several times around the area where the scrunched line.
5. Randomly scrunch and fold the rest of the shirt and secure with rubber bands.
6. Using your bottle apply the dye liberally around the “heart” rubber band.
7. Fill in your other areas with other colors of dye.
8. Follow the rest of the directions in your dye box for setting and washing!
