Have you ever tie-dyed anything?

yeah back in the 70s we did that usually just boring one color shirts try it, its a lost art really when I start the new Sturbridge Village (old hippies) growing weed, tye dying, making granola, beading, etc. then maybe we can revive it as a lost art

When my best friend moved away with her hubby to a cold place I sent her a care package. Inside the package was a pair of long johns. I tried to tie die them, it was a horrible mess and they looked pretty funky. All I remember doing is getting the die ready in a big pot then I took some string and tied up bunches of the material and dumped it in and then took it out and allowed them to dry and untied. It kinda worked but I have yet to venture down that trail again. Peace and good luck!

no, i have never done this but it seems like something that is very fun and interesting to do. a pretty good experience to have. i will have to do this. plus i have 60's nostalgia.

I have never tried this but I would suggest using the bathtub for it. Tie up the duvet using some wide rope then dip half of it into one color. Drain the tub after you've wrung out the duvet and get the other color ready in it. Then dip the other half. The only thing with doing it that way is that the "unnappetising shade of beige" will show through where you tied it. I think a better thing to do would be to dye it completely one color (the lighter shade) and then tie it and dye it the darker color. Then your lighter color will show through in the rings where it was tied.
