Camp Colors - That's Tie-Dye at Holiday Hill Mansfield

Tie-Dye a fun project that is an anticipated part of camp.

                                                        Steps to tie dye a shirt

                                Start with 2 enthusiastic instructors and some Rit Dye Products

                     Kids learn how to fold and elastic the shirts they brought from home

                             Now all banded the shirts soak while the colors are mixed

                                                 Application of the colors to the wet shirt

                                          Can you wait for tomorrow to see what it became?
                                                                                

Post a Picture of your shirt on our Facebook Page! While there be sure to "like" us so you can follow our news all year long.

                                                                                   
You can learn more about Rit Dyes and techniques at the RIT website www.ritdye.com I was most intrigued by the Japanese Shibori technique and think I will have to try that one out this summer.
