> 3 dayMy daughter is a fanatic of tie-dyed stuff. We bought this kit with low expectations. Low due to the several other kits from various stores we have purchased and tried. The colors faded too quickly with the other kits. This kit however, is PERFECT. Instructions are easy to read. It comes with all the supplies you need to keep a clean area and hands. The colors are amazing. They came out vibrant and after a few washes are still very vibrant. This is the beginner kit for anyone who likes to dye.

> 3 dayWe had paid full price for one of these kits and they turned out so well we decided to do more tie-dye. In ordering a second one, I found an Open Box/Like New option. This one turned out to be an older version (the bottles looked different and the colors didnt turn out as vibrant as the first kit), plus 3 of the bottles had 1/4 the amount of powdered dye that the others had. I assume someone bought it, used what they needed, and returned it. They werent colors we absolutely needed so I chalked it up to having gotten it at a discount, but beware of the open box items. That said, the Tulip dye kits are easy to use and the shirts we did with the original kit turned out great!

> 3 dayWe used this at the end of our year with over 130 students. They came in 5 different groups of over 20 kids each aged 3-11. It was easy to organize and create a system of use so the adults were able to help each child as much as they needed. Our teacher has used other tie-dye supplies for the companies and she liked this one best. The colors after washing looked really good and bright. I cannot say how long they last though.

> 3 dayWhy my first comment was flagged is beyond me Amazon is probably the worst distributor tulip does not need them? Their products are amazing.

> 3 dayWe did everything that was suggested, we pre-washed and dried our shirts, we used 100% cotton. We did a vinegar water soak and wrung the shirts out thoroughly, we then tied and dyed our shirts which was great. We let them sit for 24 hours wrapped in plastic to keep them moist, then did the initial rinse.... Shirts all look wonderful, very vibrant, we are very happy! Then we washed as instructed, cold water, gentle cycle, a couple tablespoons of woolite gentle detergent. All of the shirts faded horribly and are now pastel colored and my son wont wear them. It seems like most of the pigment of the warmer colors washed out, as did most of the blue tones from the things like purple and black. We were left with a lot of Pinks and grays at the end where originally dark blues, purples, pinks, orange, and red had been. I dont know what else we could have done differently. It was such a disappointment between the rents and the wash at the result of the shirts. And its not like we can re-dive them or anything at this point so were out of the cost of the kit and the cost of all the shirts. Oh well, at least the process was fun.

> 3 dayWe had about 6 kids over for a party plus parents. I ordered one bc of reviews that said one is enough. When I got it the bottles were so small so I got another. We used one full out plus 4 bottles from the 2nd with the popular colors. This is my first time doing this. But I attached a photo to show two different results after rinse and wash. On the first photo on the top is a vibrant one, on the bottom is a ok one but a little faded, it looked so good before washing it. Most of mine faded after wash and I followed instructions. I let both stew in the bag for 17 hours. So here are my tips, if you want vibrant and contrast in the result, you must tie the bands tight AND be very generous with the dye. It is easy to use half a bottle on one tee shirt. So each bin comes with two bottles of each color (or at least the popular colors). So if you get one and you are worried it wont last for all the projects you want to do, you will not saturate the shirt enough because you want everyone to have enough dye. So I would advise get another box just in case. And then make sure you are using the tightness of the band to prevent the dye from dying the fabric and then generously apply the dye so that it really gets into the fabric. If you dont put enough and the bands arent tight enough then it will fade during the rinse and wash. But I havent tested my theory. In the future if I really want vibrant I would probably do it without the party so I can focus on mine being really good and vibrant. I even dyed a few for myself before the party but I was concerned about using up too much dye so they first looked amazing but when I rinsed and washed and dried they faded a lot and the white spots got a smidge bluish. The other two photos you can see the range of results I got.

> 3 dayI thought I was getting a super deal on this kit. Ive seen it in stores and its twice the price. I was wrong. I was tricked. The bottles are tiny! The kits from the craft store come with bigger bottles than this kit. The part that really makes me mad though, is theres no hint that these bottles are small. The bottles dont have a description on them, the box doesnt say how big the bottles are, and the listing doesnt include it either. It was easy to use and the colors were beautiful, but I wouldnt buy it again just because of the size of the bottles.

> 3 dayI just ordered the same kit for the 6th time. Initially, I got it for my kids 2-3 years ago as a summer project. They loved it so much, some time later we bought another one. When the price drops, I order a few to give as presents to my kids’ friends. They all love this kit! Great value. My daughter made a few shirts that she’s worn and washed countless times. The colors do start to fade after a while, but that’s fine.
