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.

Denim Shirt Upcycle Tutorial
I was so bummed out when I somehow got bleach on one of my favorite J.Crew denim shirts! I decided to upcycle instead of throw it out because it had a lot of life left.

Ink Blot Pattern-Easy Stitched Shibori Pattern
It's a fun pattern to do and also makes a great conversation starter on your couch! What do you see?
The technique is fairly simple as far as a stitched shibori pattern goes. Accordion fold the piece to the desired width and then tack the edge with repetitive stitching. Watch the video for a visual.

Color Discharge Experiment
I decided to try dharma's color remover and see what it was all about. It is also known as Thiourea dioxide (AKA Thiox, Spectralite).
