DIP DYEING FABRIC WITH INDIGO- OMBRE TUTORIAL

Dip dyeing is such a beautiful and simple technique. Another name for dip dyeing is ombre. Ombre is having a moment when it comes to hair dyeing and nails- but its also possible to do it on fabric! It's simple but a little tricky. I takes patience but it's worth the time and effort.

This is one of my favorite patterns hands down! It's modern and geometric. You can make it more white or more blue depending on the size of the fold. I did this one with mostly white- I think it looks very understated and delicate. Click for Supply List.

tie dye with indigo- nail head shibori tutorial

Nail Head Shibori Indigo Dyeing Tutorial

This is a really fun pattern to make. It can be as difficult as you want it to be and as easy as you want it to be. You can make the nails very close together or farther apart. I made my nails between 2-3 inches apart. I made sure to tie the string around the nail head very tightly and wrapped around the nail head multiple times before tying it off. I did this for each nail until I covered the entire piece. I recommend doing this while watching your favorite show or movie.
