Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Kit 15-Color Party Kit, Standard, Rainbow

Great

I bought a set of these after watching a youtube video. I had done some tie dying in my youth but mainly one color using standard dye and a bucket. The Tulip dyes are super easy to use, and the kit includes gloves and rubber bands. The dye is already in the squirt bottles ready to be activated with water, just shake and squirt. I used the classic twist method for 3 shirts (grab in the middle and twist into a tight puck, then rubber band into pie-like sections). It was very easy to direct the dye into the sections. Once the puck was completed, I turned over and repeated on the back side, then put them in plastic bags to proof for 24 hours. A quick rinse, wash, and they turned out great. The colors are very vibrant and looked amazing when they were done. I have washed the shirts 4-5 times and they have held up pretty well, faded only slightly. The only thing I might improve on this kit is to include extra dye. There is really only enough color in one bottle to do one shirt (I used 3 colors per shirt and used the entire bottle of each color on that one shirt, front and back). In other words, you can generally only use a particular color on one shirt if you are really looking to get good color and penetration. Fun kit for the kids, just make sure to protect surfaces as this can stain.

Purchased for ice dyeing not tie dying and I was a little shocked to see how little powder was in the bottles! It doesn’t say anywhere how many ounces of dye you get but it’s not a lot. Due to that it’s not going to make as many shirts as the description says. It’s not bad for Childs parties and that sort of thing but beyond that it’s a better price/value overall to buy better quality dyes.

I didn’t have the first clue about tie dye, so I ordered this kit. I was a little apprehensive about making sure I got it right and trying not to destroy my house in the process. This kit was at a great price point and seemed to be easy. So I decided to give it a shot. I was right! I’m incredibly impressed. The kit includes powdered dye that’s in bottles; just add water and shake. It also has a plastic table covering (note: it’s very small, and you may want to plan on a bigger one of your own for your table. It didn’t quite cover my modestly sized kitchen island.), gloves (but we opted to use our own better-fitting ones), and lots of rubber bands! I learned that we needed items with mostly natural fibers (at least 50% cotton, but more cotton = better), so I ordered cotton t-shirts, cotton hair scrunchies and cotton bath towels. The kit came with great step-by-step instructions, which included directions for folding different patterns. Perfect for a newbie! We also supplied our own plastic bags for letting the items stay damp and soak in their dye. I only have a couple of minor complaints. The table cloth was so small that it almost wasn’t worth it. Definitely plan on a larger one if you’re not dyeing alone. Some of the powder dust was on the outside of the bottles, but we noticed it and avoided a mess. Also, the kit claims it’s enough for 30 projects, but I’d say that’s a bit of an overstatement. We did four shirts and 10 scrunchies. I wouldn’t consider the scrunchies a whole project. I thought the towels would be perfect to count as the remaining projects, but we ended up not having quite enough dye to finish out our towels. We probably should’ve had an entirely separate kit for three towels. All in all, my kids and I had an absolute blast creating our items. I already want to order the kit again and find more things to tie dye!

This an excellent set of tie dyes with various colors. Easy to use with well written instructions and diffrent ideas of how to tye dye. There was lot of diffrent shades of pink and reds , but only 1 green, 1 yellow and no gray or orther earth tones. This was a great for a bunch of us ( 6) to have fun and tie dye. I wanted to do more so i ordered Rit dye in diffrent colora so i could chose the colors I iike. Kit comes with rubber bands and a few sets of plastic gloves.

We purchased this refill kit in addition to the kit that comes in the plastic box. We weren’t sure how much dye we would need to make 10 preschool sized tshirts and 9 adult sized tshirts. We needed both sets and had some dye left over. The colors are vibrant and I would definitely buy this again. (I wish they just sold little envelopes of the dye so you could reuse your bottles instead of gaming to purchase more bottles).
