    whoa! Tie dye can be an art even more than a craft!

    I am one half of a studio that produces dyes for stage productions. Customers include String Cheese Incident, YMSB, Steve Kimock, Mountains of Venus and others.
    to write it off as kiddie camp craft is to negate the fact that artists start that way.


    oh, back to the lab?
    I keep seeing a yellow lab retriever every time I read your screen name!

    I love tie dye! It is such an art!!!!! Tie dye and Batik are my favorite forms of art. I love that you cannot completely control the outcome of it. It's sometimes a spiritual experiance! There are so many different ways to die dye, and styles and colours!!! YAY for die dye!

    - kiddie craft my ass!

    Tie-Die is brilliant... my entire room has been taken over by massive sheets hanging from the ceiling. If you design a simple shape, like a heart, you can draw it on, sow round it, then pull the cotton tight. I've got hearts, tear-drops, clouds, moons... its the easiest way to control tie die into a particular shape. This is probably common knowledge, but I only discovered the method a few weeks ago... was sooo excited, lol.

    I love batik... Once I've mastered it a little, I managed to make some funky curtains...
