I had about 10 white leftover from Superman that I planned on using for Gem, but I decided that I didn't want them to be white anymore (well they were already yellow and gross anyway). I have been aching to tie-dye for week and weeks and finally got around to it. I bought a bunch of Dollar store buckets and started mixing colours. Little did I realise that Every colour was going to come out the same shade of Blue or Green. The only "win" in this sitation was my purple/red combo I threw together. At first it was mostly red, and the red for some reason came out all gloopy and didn't mix well. Then I threw in more purple and avoided disaster.

The white onesie is the "before" shot. |
The purple tie-dyed onesies was supposed to be blue, but it looked
awful, I threw it into the red/purple mix and it came out great.
Another thing I learned was - do NOT take off the elastics until you
have rinsed everything in the washing machine. All my colours ran
together and made the tie-dyed look terrible.
Also, two of the onesies are the same colour, one was supposed to be ombre dyed, but again, that didn't work out.
Maybe I will try again later.
