Sooo I want to make some tie dye, some cheap fabric dye at the local market, but I want to buy just plain white shirts, not retarded fitting ones either anyone know where I can buy some sweet plain white shirts in like a bundle?
 
I've tried I'm just slightly internet retarded; with sizes and such, but I wanna make a sweet tie dye tall tee for the winter cause, well why the fuck not
 
Hippies man it was kind of a big thing down here, guess you only got the draft dodgers up there.

But seriously, they're cheap, fun, and easy to make. You can get pretty artistic with them too. I've made some pretty dope colored shirts before.

Find unconventional ways to pinch your shirt when you make em, everybody uses rubber bands, you can do some cool shit with clothes pins and office clips and things like that. Don't just bunch it up and spray color in there that just looks messy. I horizon. folded the bottom of a shirt once and then bunched the top into a cone with blue and red on the bottom and orange for the cone on top. When it unfolded it was like a sunset at the beach or when the clouds go blue and red at the end of the day.

If you try you can really make a picture rather than a pile of puke on a shirt.
 
Hit up a Michaels or some other craft store. They always have racks and racks of tee shirts for about $5 a piece.
 
yeah joanne or micheals. i tiedye alot and have made many shirts. i found that the thicker the fabric the better it holds the dye. so the shirts that are purchased singly will usually hold it better than say the 5 pack of fruit of the loom shirts, and since you are going to be wearing it skiing you shouldnt have to worry about them being too thick.
 
what the hell are you talking about? i tye dyed last week, and my aunt used to her in her teens a lot haha, and ive seen lots of people with tye dye. its aqwesome
 
one thing i learnt about tie dye is to use a shirt made 100% of cotton, no synthentic stuff

colors stay in longer and dont fade
 
walmart is pretty cheap,but id go to a craft store like micheals, they're like 5 bucks a peice, really comfy, and they sell like 4x and down, plus they sell good dye their
