Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Kit Kaleidoscope, 12 Colors Tie Dye

One of the dye bottles was missing three cap and left powder all over everything in the kit. I tried cleaning the pink powder off the rubber bands and gloves but little specks of it got all over my tie dye still. Should have returned it but needed it to make some gifts and would t have had time.

Best kit for the money!

Everything you need to do tie-dye for the first time! This makes it very easy and Its more than enough to do a minimum of 3 shirts because thats how many I did and I had so much stuff left over. I could have probably saved so many more if I had known! I barely used a 3rd of each bottle that we used and many of the colors we didnt use at all, so a lot of it was wasted. Only activate the colors you know you will use for sure!

I bought this kit to use with my family. There was plenty dye though the claim on the package seems a bit high. We dyed 7 T-shirts and 4 tote bags and there was still some dye left over, probably enough for one or two more shirts. This kit is ready to use and produces very vibrant colors. I was very impressed with how bright the colors came out. The bottles do tend to leak, so be very careful when shaking and when removing the caps. Definitely use the included gloves and plastic table cover!

I bought this as a gift for my son who wanted to do some type of project that he could also gift to family members since he has not been able to see them in a while due to the pandemic. It was such a fun and easy family project. His Grandparents and Aunts loved the shirts so much.♡♡♡

The kit was fun and relatively straightforward. The suggested designs were helpful even though we ended up looking up more complicated ones online. We dunked the clothing in water and then wrung it out well enough before rubber banding them into desired designs. When it came to the actual application, it was messier than expected. We did it outside on plastic tarp but the liquid kind of squirts everywhere. I wouldnt recommend trying to do small/intricate design with these bottles alone. We rotated the clothing to try and saturate fully from all sides, but again, it got really messy. After we were done applying it looked like the underside would end up an ugly runny brown, and I was worried. But it definitely did not turn out that way! We let our shirts sit for 24 hours because thats how long it took the sweatshirts to become mostly dry, then rinsed them well and put them in the washer with just a teeny tiny bit of laundry soap on cold and delicate, large load because it recommends using excess water to wash. Everything turned out really great and vibrant and not brown at all!! However, we used every bit of all the bottles except for the brown one, and ended up with two crewneck sweatshirts, a short sleeve tshirt and two long sleeve tshirts (these two arent pictured). If we hadnt done sweatshirts and long sleeve shirts we MAYBE could have made 8 tshirts total. The kit says you can do up to 36 projects, but unless youre tie-dyeing headbands and bandanas, that part is not true. Overall good product, though.

Our family had a whole lot of fun designing and making our own tie-dye tee shirts. The colors that Tulip provides have a good range. Keep in mind when you soak your shirt/garment after wrapping in plastic wrap and leaving it overnight, the colors will become more muted. After getting most of the excess dye out I wrung it out a few times and then let it air dry on a sunny summer day. Then you should be able to wash all your tie-dye shirts together in the washer, then dry them together in the dryer. After that you should be able to wash them with normal clothes (we did, but you may want to wash separately 3 more times as per the instructions. I highly recommend this for some great family fun!

We did this for a birthday party for a four year old and even the littles could do it and be pretty clean about it! We got, I think, 20 projects out of this kit and the colors are SO VIBRANT and all worked really well together.

In every post I read that you have to use this dye ASAP! I was so stressed about this and hurried through. Then I left about 4 of the dyes in their containers for about a YEAR. Just used them, and though not as bright, the muted colors were absolutely fine, bright enough of love. Im not sure, but the key could be a soaking of the fabric in Soda Ash. So please dont freak out and hurry, you can do the dyeing over a couple of days, just use Soda Ash

This set doesnt come with tshirts. Also make sure to prep to protect area from becoming dyed. Instructions were easy to follow. This is a great gift.
