Art: Winter ice-dye round three


Yes, yes, we have MORE! 


Trust me dolls, there's likely going to be quite a bit of these over the next year. I'm infatuated with tie-dye and especially ice-dye if you haven't noticed from previous posts over the years (like this one , this one, or this one from 2015, this one, this one, this one, this one, this one, or this one through 2016, or even this one from 2017)... tie-dye is magic. Tie-dye is love.  And if there's one thing we've got a crap-ton of in our house it's love! 


Since it's been a bit cold these past couple months we've had to change up our process a little to ensure that the ice actually, you know, melts. It's not been terribly inconvenient though our living space is small and bringing our projects indoors limits our already limited space a bit further as we have to by hyper-vigilant about any potential leaks or spillages. We have a method that works and has worked smoothly for us so far so I'm pretty happy with it for now. An additional bonus is that bringing the projects inside means better lighting and an even easier time satisfying my itch to peek at every possible instance to see if anything new or exciting has revealed itself! Eventually I'll figure out how to do a time lapse. Eventually. 


For now, here's lots of pretty photos!

Las Vegas: Brennan's B-day Tie-dye project finale 2015-09-25


He really likes tie-dye, what can I say? :)

Once the shirts were soaked overnight, we rinsed them off thoroughly and dried them. 
I took these photos the very next afternoon! They faded a bit, but that's to be expected as the shirts are going to look a lot darker when still wet anyway.

Project: Spring Dye round 2


We're often doing some sort of colorful project or event, so naturally we love creating tie-dye!
Here's some photos of a batch we did earlier this year.
These puppies will be up in our Storenvy and Etsy soon. :)
If you like what you see, please help support our small business so we can keep bringing you colorful new creations!

Project: Spring Ice dyes


     So, Antho and I recently tried out ice dyeing for the first time. We've been experimenting with tie-dying fabrics and creating various designs since last summer (which, if you're curious, you can find over on our Storenvy shop) but this was our first experiment with ice dye and I made sure to document the process.

























    And seriously, look at this gorgeous shirt Antho made! Isn't it fun?
