What's included in the Tie-Dye Dotz kit?
This complete craft kit contains 10 Dotz in five vibrant colors (two Dotz per color), one dropper for adding water, one pair of adult-sized gloves, and one pair of child-sized gloves. It also includes printed instructions and a video tutorial to guide you through the process. Note that rubber bands are not included, but they can help create certain designs if you have them at home.
How do you use Tie-Dye Dotz?
Using the kit is straightforward. Place the Dotz directly on the fabric of a garment or accessory (sold separately). Then use the dropper to add water to each Dotz. The dye activates on contact and spreads through the fabric, creating colorful patterns. The included instructions walk you through three classic tie-dye designs, making it easy for first-time creators to achieve bold results.
How many garments can you dye?
The set contains enough Dotz to dye up to three adult-sized T-shirts. This makes it a great choice for group activities like birthday parties, playdates, or family projects. You can also experiment on smaller items like socks or tote bags to stretch the kit further.
