Tie-Dyed paper,not much to it, just a few things everyone will have.





Your going to need:

Permanent markers (lots of different colors)
2 sheets of printer paper (I used 8.5" X 11")
A rubber band
Rubbing alcohol (aka-Isopropanol) (Nail polish remover works too)
Spray bottle (this you can get at the dollar store)
An iron (the kind you use to get wrinkles out of your shirt)

Step 1Start to tie the paper...

Start to tie the paper...
Paper is well, not nice, it isn't soft or particularly inclined to pleat nicely like cloth is. This makes it a bit harder to "tie" so we have to use a form to tie it around.

Take one of the two sheets of paper and crumple it into a ball.

Yay, we have a tie(ing) form. (this turns out to be a cool and usable sheet of "near" tie dye)
