If you like the look of tie-dyed clothing and accessories, this instruction video can help you learn the basic steps to making them yourself. Tie Dye 101: The Basics was created in part by the staff of True Tie Dye, a respected maker of tie-dyed garments, and here they demonstrate the essentials of the craft -- what materials are needed, proper preparation, folding and tying, mixing the dyes, and much more. The video demonstrates techniques for a variety of clothing styles, from T-shirts to sarongs, as well as wall hangings, tapestries, sheets, and other household items.
