TiE DyE TuEsDaY...

This weekend we embarked on project Tie Dye. I have wanted to do this for a little while but we kept running into issues with our materials. I purchased a dress for Morgan to dye, but it was way too big - so we had to return and wait for the replacement... (this process was made longer by my procrastination I will admit). 

The second dress was a perfect fit and so on Friday night we commenced with our project. 24 hours later I rinsed out the dress and unfortunately I wrapped it a little too tightly and there was too much white space (professional tie-dyer I am not). Sunday we made our way back to the craft store for box #2 of dye and repeated the process. I was not at all sure how this would work - I figured it could not hurt much - tie dye is supposed to be random patterns and color variations. 

The end result: 

I think she enjoyed the tie dye project and making a dress that only she will have.  She was happy with the results and received quite a few compliments on her way into class this morning. 

I will say tie dye can test the nerves a little bit - each time we started to dye she suddenly had an itchy face. I am so surprised we made it out without her having a blue nose or ear. :-) 

Side note: I bought all my clothing from Dharma trading - I HIGHLY recommend this company if you ever need anything of this sort - they were super great with the return process and every delivery came pretty quickly.
