Is it just me or does it seem like tie dye is making a comeback? Recently, I’ve seen some really groovy tie dye designs and patterns online and in magazines.
Both kids and adults are embracing the tie dye trend, creating unique tie dye patterns with different tie dye techniques like dip dye which is trending!
Tie dye is such a fun and creative activity you can do with your kids all year long, but especially during the summer months.

When I think of tie dye, what comes to mind first is shirts. Probably because growing up, I tie dyed A LOT of t-shirts in Girl Scouts!
But the truth is you can tie dye nearly anything.
Socks, lunch bags, face masks – even shoes!
Check out this list of 20+ tie dye projects!
Many of these posts include tie dye folding techniques with pictures – especially handy if you’ve never tie dyed before. You’re sure to find at least one idea that will inspire you to tie dye something in your closet or around your home.
