Got an old plain tee or hoodie sitting idle in your closet? Try this fun project with this super easy reverse tie-dye tutorial!
I posted a picture on my Instagram a while ago where I wore a tie-dye shirt. I noticed that quite a number of people liked it and a few even asked where I purchased it, not realizing it was a DIY project. DIY projects help my creativity generally and so being a sweet angel with a heart of gold, I decided to do a simple tutorial here!
Materials
- Bleach
- Water
- Rubber bands
- A plain coloured tee/hoodie ( preferably 100% cotton)
You don’t want your work to be messy so you probably want to spread something on your work surface.
Steps
Step 1: ‘Tie’ the shirt.
There are lots of tying techniques which you can find here. Feel free to use the one that suits you best, but for the purpose of this post, I’d be using the spiral technique.
Step 2: Use the rubber bands to hold shirt in place.
Step 3: Mix equal parts of bleach and water in a spray bottle.
If you don’t have one, you can make a makeshift spray bottle by puncturing the cap of a plastic bottle. You’re welcome.
Step 4: Spray the bleach + water mixture on your shirt till it is completely covered by the mixture.
Step 5: Leave the shirt for about five to ten minutes.
You’d notice some parts of the shirt begin to fade.
Step 6: Rinse out the bleach, take out the rubber bands, wash and dry the shirt.
That’s how you make a reverse tie/dye shirt. Its super easy and you can find everything you need at home!
When you try out this project, feel free to send me pictures on Instagram or to my mail. I’d love to see it! Also, share this super easy reverse tie-dye tutorial with your friends so they can try it out too!
Every weekend i used to visit this web page, for the reason that i wish for enjoyment,

Usually I do not learn post on blogs, however I wish to say that this write-up very compelled me to check out and do so!
Your writing taste has been amazed me. Thank you,
quite great article.
Thank you, I have just been searching for info about this subject for a long
time and yours is the greatest I’ve found out
till now. However, what about the bottom line?
Are you sure concerning the supply?
It’s awesome to go to see this web page and reading the views of all friends on the topic of
this paragraph, while I am also keen of getting familiarity.
Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell
and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put
the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit
crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!
LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I
had to tell someone!
Good replies in return of this matter with genuine arguments and explaining the whole thing concerning that.
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this
matter to be really something which I think I would never understand.
It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me.
I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get
the hang of it!
