Ice Dyeing

   I started by reading this blog...and then wanted to try it myself...and wanted to see what I could do different and stuff...here's what I did...

Tropical Punch makes RED and Strawberry Pink...


I twisted and couldn't find a rubber band but elastic works too!


I put the fabric in a bowl...added some ice...and sprinkled Kool-Aid on top...


Who wants to wait FOREVER?! Not me...so I threw it in the Microwave for a few minutes...

I had to rearrange the ice a couple times....


Didn't seem like it was dyeing enough...so I added some water...and microwaved it again...

Then I wrapped it in cling wrap and microwaved it like the tutorial said...



Cooled down a bit...not totally....


   Rinsed it out...and threw it in the dryer...



All done!!! It is a lot paler in person then it looks on here...but it will work nice for a skirt for Ella or something!!! (You can click on any picture to see more detail!)
