Marbling Tie Dye Technique
Wide opening is best.
Marbling tie dye technique. For this tie dye technique choose various places to wrap and bind a marble snugly in your fabric using rubber bands. You can find it here. Then you capture your design by laying a treated piece of fabric or paper down on top of the paint to transfer the swirls to the fabric. Then use a squeeze bottle full of the fabric dye to drench the surface of the t shirt.
Leave it at that for a rather simple circle or for a more vibrant pattern like shown above wrap another rubber band binding just fabric this time a little ways below the marble. Learn how easy it is to create incredible marble designs with just some shaving cream and rit all purpose dye. I was browsing pinterest one day and came across instructions on how to dye paper to create a marbled effect. When one side is completely covered flip the shirt over gently and cover the other side with the remaining dye.
The paper looked gorgeous and i was curious to see whether the same technique could be applied to fabric. Oh marbling how we love you. The floating paints are swirled into patterns. Traditionally one bottle is used in the marbling technique but more colors can be introduced if desired.
