Product Description

Editorial Review

A great introduction to fabric dyeing and textile handling, this kit is sure to make a dyed-in-the-wool fan out of anyone who uses it. Professional-quality fiber-reactive dyes are combined with excellent illustrated instructions to ensure excellent results, even for total beginners. The set contains red, yellow, and blue dyes; a mixing bottle; latex gloves; and rubber bands. This is a great party kit--just add teenagers, T-shirts, and adult supervision. Dyes are not nontoxic; these are the actual dyes that craftspeople use. This kit will dye between 10 and 15 shirts. --S. J. Kurtz

We purchased this kit about 4 years ago and have now tie dyed hundreds of shirts, and taught virtually every kid in the neighborhood how to. The dyes are very permanent (not like supermarket dye), and the bottles are durable and can be used over and over. Someone else complained that there is not enough soda ash to complete multiple jobs... You can always use Arm & Hammer washing soda, and this can be purchased in the laundry isle at the supermarket.

This product is the best tie dye kit I've used! The color stays vibrant, my kid's made t-shirts over a year ago and the color looks new! You can also wash the shirts with the regular laundry and not worry the other clothes will become tie dye too! The squeeze bottles for the dye are a great way to help control the application of color. This is the kit I will continue to use for tie dye.

You do around 15 adult size shirts out of this kit. My friends and their kids visited and I thought this would be a great summer activity. It was. The kids and adults had fun and the shirts came out great.

Although their are written instructions, you will need to watch the video to get the details. Be sure to watch it in advance. You don't want to be starting, with everyone's energy level high with excitement... and then have to watch the video. Everyone does not need to watch it. I was the only one who watched it (a couple days in advance) and was able to easily guide everyone.

Make sure you do inject dye into the creases of the rubber banded shirts. Otherwise you will have too much white space. One last recommendation: rubber bands are included, but by a whole bunch of different colored rubber bands so you can remember whose shirt is whose (or belongs to what family). When you let them sit and then wash them, they get all grouped together and mixed up.

Great kit and I've ordered two more. This is a new fourth of July tradition.
