Favorite Things: Tie dye & Ombre

Something about summer always gives me the tie-dye bug. I’ve been tie-dying all weekend, leaving me with smurf blue hands & no white clothes left. As many times as I have tie-dyed in the past, it was eons ago & I was a little rusty. I thought I didn’t need the instructions and was shown otherwise: I forgot to get the first shirt wet (resulted in a splatter paint massacre – I’ll be wearing that shirt to paint my laundry room next week), I put the blue “ombre” shirt too close to the green (tragedy struck in the shape of a big green blob on the sleeve-I’ll be wearing that shirt to bed), my grass is orange and my hands stained blue. I zipped thru white shirts and squeezed the bottles to the last drop. I can’t wait to try it again. This time I’ll be ready.
