Did some ice dyeing again yesterday, but different than I've done previously. I bundled and scrunched the fabrics and shirt tying them with string and rubber bands, so they stayed together in a dinner plate like shape. I placed them on a rack over a larger container, put ice on it and then sprinkled darker color dye powder on it. Next I placed it outside for an hour or so until most of the ice had melted. Then I brought it back inside, flipped it upside down and placed ice over it followed by lighter color dye powder.
I really like the contrast in colors and textures.
The above piece is canvas.
The piece above is cotton.
This shirt looks much better when on a body.
Love your results! Clever, to do a double dye like that! Always something more to try, isn't there? ;-)
