Tie-Dye T-Shirt Critters


Tie-Dye T-Shirt Critters Supplies:
  • Light colored t-shirt (i.e. white, grey, yellow, or tan)
  • 26 gauge gold wire
  • Fabric paint (select your own colors)
  • Fabric Dye

Instructions:

  1. Twist and shape t-shirt into shape of desired animal, wrapping with wire as you twist.
  2. Tails are made by tightly twisting one corner of the t-shirt and wrapping with wire.
  3. Continue twisting and wrapping until desired shape is achieved.
  4. Legs and arms are made by pulling smaller tufts of the t-shirt from the main body piece, shaping and wrapping wire.
  5. When the desired animal shape is complete, color the shirt by using fabric dye (see package for instructions).
  6. Use fabric paint for details (i.e. eyes). Allow to dry.

Animal shape can be unwrapped to reveal a unique tie-dyed shirt!
