A Bag
A ready-made bag which is tie-dyed in a water bath. The pattern is made by twisting rubber bands around the fabric. It's fun and easy. Coconut buttons are sewn on as decoration.
1
Tie with rubber bands and plastic as shown. Tie them tightly.
2
The tie-dye bath is made as follows: Dissolve 1kg of fine salt in 10 liters of water at 30-60 C. Add 100ml dye colour. Then add 200g Fix medium dissolved in a little water. (For this example we have used approx. 1/3). Wet the bag and put it in the bath for approx. 1 hour. Stir frequently.
3
Rinse the bag to remove excess colour and remove the rubber bands.
4
After drying and ironing the bag, sew on the buttons as decoration.
