theres so much you can do with tie dye! do a bit of research on the internet before you start just for interests sake to see what else you can do. i found one that shows you how to tie dye a peace sign! SO doing that next! :)

get a plain white vest/shirt/dress/piece of material, old or new
if youre only making one shirt,dont make the full amount of dye i used an empty ice cream container for each colour
part 1 roll it up,starting at the bottom right corner and ending at the left sleeve part 2 use string or elastic bands to tie rolled up shirt into as many patritions as you like,as far or near apart as you like (i tied 7 partitions because i wanted to do a rainbow.the 1st being the smallest and each partition gradually got larger) tip - you can tie the string tighter
dip your first partition in your 1st colour dont forget to wear gloves!
holding your other colours out of the way,dip in your next colour until the string on either side of the partition is touching the dye
continue in this way till all your partitions have been dyed
cut the strings and hang up your garment to dry on a coat hanger
