How to TIE DYE with RIT!!

Hey guys! We love DIYing stuff, so we thought why not get into the spirit of tie-dying. It was super easy and affordable so definitely give it a try! We enjoyed making this video and hope y'all liked it! Thank y'all so much for watching and until next Monday! Love y'all!

PRODUCTS WE USED:
-White t-shirt
-Rit dye:www.target.com...
-Rubber bands
-Squeeze container (we used water bottles)
-2 cups of hot water
-2 cups of cold water
Step-by-step
1. Think of design you're going for and look up how to place the rubber bands accordingly
2. Prepare your rit dye by putting as much as you want into the container with the hot water. The more dye color you pour the more vibrant the color will be.
3. Start painting your white t shirt with the dye
4. Let it rest for 30 minutes then microwave it for 30 seconds
5. Pour the cold water on the shirt
6. Wait thirty minutes
7. Wash and enjoy! :)

I’m pretty sure usually people say that you have to get the item or a shirt wet first before you put the dye so it actually soaks in instead of rolling off

[@MegaSayWhaaat]

hers came out so good! I was kind of worried it was gonna be too brown and not tan but it actually came out the color I imagined in my head. great job guys!

[@zuri.valdez]

Yea it came out really good!

[@kiarawilliams512]

[@BreeAnnaPike]

What specific colour did andres use? Im using rit polyester dye to dye a dress for a gender reveal and i really really love that blue but canna find a royal blue.

[@moeprice4260]

How did you guys make the top of the water bottle where it came out like that? Did y'all poke holes throughout the top? Please share.

[@zuri.valdez]

Yes, with a pen we just poked a hole

[@ADayWithMel]

I love the results guys! Thank you for sharing! 😊

[@zuri.valdez]

[@zuri.valdez]

[@greasyviking]

Made a really cool fleece blanket for my niece with blue and red using a traditional tie dye method, wash and rinse then sit in doda ash, 48 hours in seran wrap after the rinse the red and blue faded to a beautiful purple and pink and kept all details of tie dye look, highly recommend trying it

[@zuri.valdez]

Thank you!!

[@zuri.valdez]

We’ll definitely try it!

[@jyack275]

Those came out cool. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@RobynMcMullen]

[@dalal5466]

You guys are such a cute couple! I'm glad I just found this channel :)

[@zuri.valdez]

Thank you!! 🥰

[@BeautyfulButterfly13]

The way you guys did this was awesome. I wasn't expecting the results to look this good. I have to try it

[@zuri.valdez]

Yes try it! Let us know how it turned out 😬

[@rhubiking]

The cold water keeps it from going into the white areas

[@zuri.valdez]

Yes!

[@abigailcazares7411]

Imagine if y’all would’ve dampened the shirts!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ahaanashah7402]

Hi! Do you have any tips on how to make the white spots stay white during the wash?

[@zuri.valdez]

When we washed them the white spots didn’t get any color on them but I think what helps is to wash the shirt with really cold water after

[@catmasterfunk]

love this 😍 the recycled bottle to put the dye mix in was a pro tip lol. thank you so much!

[@tabbs4827]

“Shock it? This ain’t chicken girl” lol super creative you guys!!!

[@zuri.valdez]

😂😂

[@lunaoverwatch]

The talking part is so quiet I have to turn you up and then WHAM the music is so loud it blew my eardrums out.

[@zuri.valdez]

So sorry 😭😩 We’re still getting the hang of editing, so we’re for sure taking this and fixing it for future videos. Thank you! ❤️

[@lunaoverwatch]

@@zuri.valdez =) no problem i still watched the vid and learned some cool stuff. thank you!

[@smugoverdose]

Pre wash to get chemicals off AND wet the shirts first to stop roll-off

[@madi1343]

Those turned out really cute! Idk if y'all did it or not but if you wet the shirt a little first the dye shouldn't bead up as much 😊

[@zuri.valdez]

Thank you!! We’ll definitely try that next time! 🥰

[@erinescence2095]

Right, you want to wash it and leave it wet (or wet it again when you are ready to tie-dye it) because most new shirts will have "sizing" on them to make them hang better in the store and resist stains. The sizing also makes the dye roll off. If it's a shirt you've had for a while, still wash it because fabric softener can do the same thing. ;)

[@opalrhue9032]

Super cute! Does it bleed when you wash it ??

[@zuri.valdez]

Opal Rhue Nope it didn’t bleed at all! It was super easy to do so I definitely recommend ☺️

[@kierasaurusfrost]

That’s what rinsing it with cold water before running it through the washing machine is for! If you put the pieces in the washer without rinsing the excess dye out, that excess dye can pool in the washer and get all over the parts you wanted to leave white. So rinse first, then wash! Also, be careful what you set the shirts on after washing. They can bleed when they are still wet (but they won’t do it once you’ve worn and washed them a few times)

[@stopcreamsoda]

These are pretty fire

[@zuri.valdez]

Hope it helped!! 😬

[@mdavega1]

New Subie you guys are so cute just bought some dye for some projects 💜

[@zuri.valdez]

Thank you! ☺️

[@indiecross2420]

Did you wash your tops separately or together please?

[@zuri.valdez]

Together and they still came out good!

[@melindalopez8886]

Did you wear before you washed them? Or just after you dried in the microwave?

[@peytonewing504]

So did u guys really microwave the shirts

[@zuri.valdez]

Yes 😬

[@grizzly9809]

Did you guys really put your shirts in the microwave? For how long?

[@zuri.valdez]

Yes for thirty seconds

[@fideetfortitudine6599]

Y'all are so cute

[@officialkw77]

You're supposed to dampen the shirt first. Fun stuff

[@chrissyf798]

Aren’t they supposed to be wet? I’m confused lol

[@zuri.valdez]

We didn’t wet them beforehand, but didn’t have any issues with bleeding once washed or color fading!

[@Lifetalkswithbb]

The dye is bouncing off because you guys didn’t pre wash the shirts

[@fourearwolf3315]

Brooke Alysia And made sure that the shirts aren’t dry. Meaning you have to have the shirts damp.

[@damarisvargas4592]
